However, CHL is encouraged within the TXSG. Some TXSG CHL instructors make the class available on a semi regular basis at Camp Mabry (class) and Camp Swift (range) for TXSG, Army and Air NG, civilian employees of the Adjutant General and their families for $30. TXSG and NG get the actual license for free.

Typically, depending on the Commanding Officer and the 1SG, and the deployment, yes, you can carry. Obviously, it is not open carry. There is typically no rule against carrying concealed, however, showing of the firearm is typically very limited for obvious reasons: we are not combat troops... we are humanitarians and volunteers.
There are certain missions that a deployment would be considered highly investigative and support oriented... and those are dependent upon mission orders. Obviously, in short, it all depends.
