..i have john pension book.. all i have is his army number

If you have his pension book and his army number, then it would appear he has done military service at some point.Given his year of birth, it is probable it was during WW2.
 As we cannot see those documents, there is no way of knowing what information they contain.
Have you read the information in reply #2 about WW2 service records?
