He applied to some Customer service jobs as well as he did Job Control in the Air Force for about 3 years before they contracted the position out to civilians. Right now he is falling back on HVAC helper work he has 4 years of experience on to pay bills.

Oh, man that is a serious resume.
It may take a while to find the right job but with that kind of real world experience the company with the right fit for the degree is going to jump at him. I didn't much recruiting at the day job but the few times we did the experienced veterans always jumped to the top of the wishlist. Partly because of the "other duties as assigned" freewheeling aspects of the job but also because of the value of mature social skills.
Hang in there, you'll get there.
(And I can appreciate the desire to be close to elderly parents.)
G'luck!
