Dear Mr. Luth,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

The information you seek may be included in his Official Military Personnel Files (OMPF). OMPFs of those who served in the U.S. Navy during WWI are located at NARA's National Personnel Records Center, (Military Personnel Records), 1 Archives Drive, St. Louis, MO 63138-1002. To request his OMPF, 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 response is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
