4 Section 5. The Military Leave of Absence Act is amended
5 by changing Section 1 as follows:
6 (5 ILCS 325/1) (from Ch. 129, par. 501)
7 Sec. 1. Any full-time employee, including officers and
8 employees of a school district, of the State of Illinois,
9 other than an independent contractor, who is a member of any
10 reserve component of the United States Armed Forces or of any
11 reserve component of the Illinois State Militia, shall be
12 granted leave from State or school district employment for
13 any period actively spent in such military service,

21 During leaves for annual training, the employee shall
22 continue to receive his regular compensation as a State or
23 school district employee. During leaves for basic training
24 and up to 60 days of special or advanced training, if such

26 his compensation as a State or school district employee, he
27 shall receive his regular compensation as a State or school
28 district employee minus the amount of his base pay for
29 military activities.
