Kathy, there's another route you can go. If you're dad ever received medical treatment or was in the hospital, his home state veterans administration will have his records including a copy of his discharge papers. That is how I got a hold of MY DAD'S.
I was unable to get his discharge papers from NARA because of the major fire they experienced during the 1970's, so I turned to the VA and they were a big help to me.
