            Section A. Section 338.020, RSMo, is repealed and one new section enacted in lieu thereof, to be known as section 338.020, to read as follows:

            338.020. 1. Every person who shall hereafter desire to be licensed as a pharmacist shall file with the board of pharmacy an application setting forth his name and age, the place, or places, at which and the time spent in the study of the science and art of pharmacy, and the practical experience which the applicant has had under the direction of a legally licensed pharmacist, and shall appear at a time and place designated by the board of pharmacy and submit to an examination as to his qualifications for registration as a licensed pharmacist. Each application shall contain a statement that it is made under oath or affirmation and that its representations are true and correct to the best knowledge and belief of the person signing same, subject to the penalties of making a false affidavit or declaration.

            2. So long as the person involved does not represent or hold himself or herself out as a pharmacist licensed to practice in this state, a Missouri pharmacist license shall not be required for a legally qualified pharmacist serving in the armed forces of the United States, or a legally qualified pharmacist employed by the government of the United States or any bureau, division, or agency thereof, who is engaged in the practice of pharmacy while in the discharge of his or her official duties.
