AI Summary
This bill includes the Space Force as being members of the armed forces or veterans eligible for certain credits and benefits that are available to other active and veteran members of the armed forces. The bill amends various laws to expand the definition of "armed forces" and "veteran" to include the Space Force. This ensures that members of the Space Force receive the same credits and benefits, such as leave of absence on Memorial Day and Veterans' Day, application fee waivers for civil service examinations, and real property tax exemptions, that are available to other active and veteran members of the U.S. armed forces.
