Members of the National Guard or official militia of the state or members of any of the reserve components of the armed forces of the United States, in the employ of the city who are ordered to extended active duty with such armed forces by proper authority, shall be restored to the position held by them when ordered to duty, with full cumulative seniority rights and without loss of creditable service time in connection with the Texas Municipal Retirement System, provided any such officer or employee of the city shall be able to perform the duties of such employment and provided any such officer or employee shall make request to be restored within 90 days after being relieved from such military duty. The provisions of this section shall also apply to any officer or employee of the city who, being a member of the National Guard, militia or reserve components of the armed forces, shall be ordered to duty with the armed forces under the provisions of the National Defense Act or shall volunteer for extended active duty, it being the purpose of this section to make no distinction between the status of an officer or employee who shall volunteer and one who shall be ordered to active duty.
