Depends. If the charge is still pending, and if it is a matter that could be considered a crime of domestic violence, then yes, it can.

Most of us here on WikiAnswers are NOT attorneys, and I would urge you to seek competent legal advice from an attorney in your state.

What will happen if you sign an affidavit saying i dont want to press charges against your boyfriend in an aggravated assault charge?

In domestic violence related cases the State can still go forward with prosecution of the case if the evidence is strong enough without testimony of the victim. This is done sometimes because in domestic violence cases the female is too afraid to testify. Sometimes the couple "make up" but another violent incident happens. Sometimes the aggressor in the relationship already has a history of domestic related assaults with a previous girlfriend.

Can an active duty military member convicted of a state felony in Texas still fire weapons for military service?

If that member wasn't discharged for being convicted of said felony, then by all means I would assume so. The only reason I can think of where a soldier convicted of any crime would be prohibited from handling a weapon is for Domestic Violence. If the soldier committed an act of Domestic Violence and was convicted of a lesser charge (like Battery), that doesn't count.
