1. Each officer and enlisted member of the national guard, when called to state active duty by the governor, is entitled to receive pay and allowances at the highest rate provided for national guard members of the same grade in the national guard of the United States, except any enlisted member serving in a grade below E-3 will be paid the same as an enlisted member serving in the grade of E-3, and the daily pay rate for each of the grades listed must be increased as follows:

2. If ordered by the governor in response to an emergency management assistance compact request and the requesting state pays state active duty pay at a higher rate than this state, national guard officers and enlisted members may receive the higher rate of pay when this state is reimbursed at the higher rate.

3. Each officer and enlisted member of the national guard is entitled to receive transportation, shelter, and subsistence. The value of articles issued to any national guard member and not returned in good order on demand, and all legal fines or forfeitures, may be deducted from the member's pay.

4. Each officer and enlisted member of the national guard is entitled to receive a state active duty pay enhancement of three hundred dollars for every month spent on state active duty or a prorated amount for each day of state active duty up to three hundred dollars per month.

5. Each officer and enlisted member of the national guard, when called to state active duty by the governor, is entitled to receive the same incentive pay that an officer or enlisted member of the same grade and rating would be eligible to receive if called to active duty under federal authority in service of the United States, not to exceed the monthly amount authorized for the incentive under federal law.

6. Commissioned officers and enlisted members serving on state active duty for more than fourteen days may, at the discretion of their commanding officer, receive pay for necessary rest and recovery while on duty if it is deemed necessary to ensure the national guard members' readiness to perform assigned duties while on state active duty.
