You will be able to request his service records if he signs the forms they are free

For service personnel that have passed as long as you can prove next of kin etc there is a charge

Hello Stephen
Hoping you are keeping well and your collection etc is thriving.
I have a string of service record requests outstanding and have braced myself for a year wait (it was 2 years just after Covid). The records phone number appears to be dead / removed so I phoned the Freephone number you provided - there was no option to check Service Records or check on progress - unless I am missing something

Any advice from ANY FORUM MEMBER appreciated on ways to find out what is going on

Regards
Mike
