     Requires the member to contribute to the member reserve, either in a lump sum or installments, amounts determined by the director.

     Does not apply to any individual, not a veteran within the meaning of RCW 41.04.005.  Military service shall not be credited to any member who is receiving full military retirement benefits pursuant to Title 10 United States Code.
