Service records for any personnel serving after 1920 are still with the MOD.
They are NOT available online anywhere!

See: https://www.gov.uk/get-copy-military-service-records
There is a fee of £30, and you'll need a copy of his death certificate.
You also need his Service Number OR his date of birth.
