Hi, Welcome to the forum. You need to discover his service number or his DOB plus obtain a copy of his death certificate before applying to MOD for his service records via this link - Get a copy of military service records Your best bet will be to speak to the 3 people you mention to identify his place and date (year might be enough) of birth and death. Once you have that information forum members may be able to assist further to identify a death certificate date Good Luck Steve
