Hi,Don't know if you have his enlistment record (below)or if it is for your father.
Have you written to the NPRC or the VA for any records?
Here is the NPRC site.Complete the Form 180.If they tell you his records burned, fill out the additional paperwork they send you as best you can.Give it about 6 months and then contact them to find out progress.Keep track of all contact and who you deal with and dates.

Try the regional VA office where he last resided.They may have some records and if not will pass on to another VA office I believe.

If he has passed and had a military funeral, contact the Sexton of the Cemetery and the funeral home.They should have some records.
Try the State Archives of where he enlisted and or was discharged.Also contact the County Clerk where he enlisted.
Hope some of this helps.Good Luck!!!
