Sec. 6. (a) This section and sections 7 through 11 of this chapter apply to a teacher who through:
(1) volunteering; or
(2) statutory selection;
enters defense service on a full-time basis.
(b) Because the United States Congress has decreed that it is imperative to increase and train United States armed forces personnel, this section and sections 7 through 11 of this chapter:
(1) provide protection for teachers who have been called to leave their positions to defend the nation due to the necessity of war or a state of emergency;
(2) preserve the status and contract rights under the laws to any teacher who enters the defense service; and
(3) place those teachers in a position that the defense service does not operate as an interruption of teaching service because the contract rights that each teacher had when entering the defense service are preserved during that service the same as if the teacher had not entered the service.
