Not that I ever had anything to hide...Listing your military history on the CHL paperwork IIRC, was nothing more than checking that you served, and that you were anything "but" dishonorably discharged...

If he lists the service, they will probably only verify that he was discharged honorably...

That whole mess earlier in his carreer in the service may not even make a blip on the radar...

If it means that much to you, and you want them to really dive into your service in the military, it really doesn't give you any extra speed in processing or consideration for the Texas CHL (IMO)...It may even slow it down, and possibly hold it up if they see something like this, that it appears the military forgave and re-assigned your Dad to active duty, and with a TS clearance...You do not get a TS clearance after you screw up bad enough (as it appears) to get convicted of a serious "stupid", either in the civilian or military justice system...

My take...Take the class, fill out the paperwork indicating successful honorable discharge, and see what happens...If Austin needs clarification, they'll send you a letter...They are good at that...

Cross that bridge when and if you get there...

But this is just my opinion...
