I know that my grandfather served in both Europe and the Pacific during the Second World War, but since he died several years before I was born, I’ve never been able to ask him questions about it. I would like to know the specifics, though, so I was wondering if it would be possible for me to obtain his military records.

Probably not since it is not public record. You can try contacting the national archives which has the archives of military servicemen records…
Or try contacting the VA.
good luck with your quest.

You know his social security number and full name? If so, write the Army Personnel Center in St. Louis, MO.
If he wasn’t Army, then go to the VA website for info.

I think the only thing that is public record as far as military are military discharge papers, which if I am not mistaken every county court house gives access to. But, the va office would be the best place to start. You should be able to find VA offices close to you by looking online. At least they can answer you questions better.
