Do you know or does the family know if he ever received care from the VA Hospital or ever filed a claim for service connected disabilities from his brain injury? If so, you may want to reach out to them to obtain his medical history as well.

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
Official Military Personnel Files (OMPFs) for those who served in the U.S. Army who were separated from the service 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.
If you are just seeking medical reports, individual medical reports of veterans who left the Army prior to October 16, 1992 are in the custody of NARA's National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis. Please complete a NA Form 13042 and mail it to NARA's National Personnel Records Center, (Military Personnel Records), 1 Archives Drive, St. Louis, MO 63138-1002.
We hope this is helpful.
