Spotty work history in last 1 year and half/ Worried about bad references

I am interested in company sponsored training, and employment, however I've had crap jobs in the last year 1/2 that I couldn't stand, and have been unemployed. I walked off, or just didn't show up that's how bad they sucked(security). Prior to that I was an oilfield worker, (mechanic, and frac operator), believe it or not I have a good work ethic, I don't mind working long hours in remote locations, for months at a time additionally I spent 12 years in the USAF, and have 3 honorable discharges. I took the jobs out of desperation, however I refuse to do that anymore. I am interested in sponsored training, so I can get my CDL and experience, fulfill my commitment to whom ever hires me, and go back to oilfield work, as most of the positions require a CDL with a minimum of one year experience. I would like advise on how to approach the situation, with out having to lie, and without it having a negative outcome.

Should I just man-up put it all out there, and let the chips fall where they may?

Any comment will be greatly appreciated. Hopefully they will be positive encouraging comments. Thanks in Advance.
