he served in world war 2 and i am trying to find information on what he did where he went during the war. i also want to try and see if he got any medals during the war. thank you.What are some ways of getting information on my great grandfathers history?If you are in the US, you can write the Service Record Center in St. Louis and give enough information about him so that they can pull his record.
His name
Date of Birth
Social Security Number if that is available
Place of birth
Place of induction into the service
Home address at time of induction
All of those will assist them, so get as many as you can.
This site will give you all information you need on where to send it, etc.

You do not say whether your great grandfather served with the British or Australian forces, either way you may be able to get further information on Regimental Websites. Unfortunately, a number of distinguished regiments and corps no longer exist.
