Dear Ms. Smith,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

We searched the National Archives Catalog and located a series titled Records of Divisions, 1917-1920 in the Records of the American Expeditionary Forces (World War I) (Record Group 120) that includes files of the 119th Infantry Regiment, 30th Division. We also located a series titled Records of the 1st Through 338th and the 559th Infantry Regiment, 1916-1921 in the Records of U.S. Regular Army Mobile Units (Record Group 391) that should include 119th. We were unable to locate specific records of Company G.  Records of lower echelon units sometimes were incorporated into the files of the regiment. For access to and/or copies of these records, please contact the National Archives at College Park - Textual Reference (RDT2) via email at archives2reference@nara.gov.

For information about his service, we suggest requesting a copy of his Official Military Personnel Files (OMPF). OMPFs and individual medical reports for enlisted men of the U.S. Army who were separated from the service after October 1912 and prior to 1955 are in the custody of NARA's National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis. In many cases where personnel records were destroyed in the 1973 fire, proof of service can be provided from other records such as morning reports, payrolls, and military orders, and a certificate of military service will be issued. Please complete a GSA Standard Form 180 and mail it to NARA's National Personnel Records Center, (Military Personnel Records), 1 Archives Drive, St. Louis, MO  63138-1002. 

We hope this information is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
