You will now be able to contact either NARA in St Louis to see if they MAY have his records, for many were lost in the fire of '73. However, any veterans who received any kind of medical treatment through their local Veteran's Admin, may have their records obtained via the VA. This is probably a quicker method. Since you are a family member, you can call or write to the Veteran's Administration of his local state. This is how I got my dad's records. In my case, in the state of Michigan.
