(1) He or she re-enters the employ of the city, in a position covered by the retirement system, within one year after termination of such armed service actually required of him or her;
(2) He or she pays into the members deposit fund the amount, if any, he or she withdrew therefrom at the time he entered or while in such armed service, together with regular interest from the date of withdrawal to the date of repayment; and
(3) In no case shall more than five years of city service be credited any member for all such armed service rendered by him or her.
(B) In any case of doubt as to the period to be so credited any member, the Commission shall have the final power to determine such period.
