Sure, he will have a problem just based on what you posted. The question should be addressed to military recruiters.

He cannot join the military with any active probation, AND in five years when the probation is over, the military may still not wish to take him. Recognize also that he may have to register as a sex offender. See website for my experience with sex cases: www.lawrencelewispc.com
