Over here in Boardman Township, also in Ohio (up by Youngstown) we get credit for military time and previous public service time. We have guys who count 6 months of CETA time toward their vacation picks. Military reservists count their 6 months of time. I don't know for sure how it works, but if it wasn't owed to us our administration wouldn't give it to us.
