This is a screwed up mess but there's something I don't understand:

"...repay the city their city salary or their military pay, whichever was less."

"...as much as $200,000."

For someone to earn $200,000 in military pay would take years.

Good point. I agree. The troops should be able to opt to pay their miliary pay scale back to the city.
