I agree you should tell them.
It's more of a courtesy than anything else, they aren't asking to screw you, they're doing it so that you can perform safely. If you are honest at least then you know if you make it, you're going to be safe about it, and if you don't get it, at least you know you were honest (it's not much, but it's something).
Your father should not make you feel bad about being honest, especially if it could lead to a life/death senario.
It all depends on your condition. Consider this as well: You make it in, and run into a problem on the job, it comes back to your condition, they find out you knew about it, what do you suppose they will do?
