SPC Chris Bayner-Cwik might be helpful to know what material you currently have. I know my wife's maternal grandfather had some documents from WWII outside of the discharge certificate. He had plank holder certificates, a certificate from becoming a shell back etc.

Have you requested his records from the NPRC?
