There are two ways that you can request your father's service record:

Online go to:
http://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/get-service-records.html

-OR-

Write to National Personnel Records Center Military Personnel Records 9700 Page Ave. St. Louis MO 63132-5100 Ask them for Form #180 which is a request for records.

Fill out and return. They will send you a NA Form #13075 (National Archives Record Form).

Fill out this form which is more complete than first one.

Mail it back to them. THERE WILL BE COSTS CONNECTED WITH THIS, BUT THEY ARE REASONABLE FOR A REVERED DOCUMENT OF YOUR FAMILY HISTORY.

Hope this is helpful!
