Need help finding a OPM rule for vets time credit

Federal Benefits :rsz_51suo3ueqql_ac_:

I am trying to find this to help my vet buddy out. I got this but i cannot remember the OPM rules for it.

As a disabled veteran of 30% or more with the disability being due to war time injury, you can convert your time served into federal time in service (when you get a fed job), without having to buyback.

Anyone know the rule or have a link?

Thank you :)

​

Edit: Not the buyback program.

​

Edit: I have this already, my service comp date has an extra 7 years served on it from my service in the army. no buy-in needed. I meet all requirements in the below edit

​

Edit: Part of it is,

​

Title 5 Section 6303

3501 of this title is entitled to credit for active

military service only if—

armed conflict; or

(ii) caused by an instrumentality of war
