Hi Marc

His service documents include his discharge documents. They were all kept together. The NA information of 40% survival is wrong. In the official report of what was destroyed - available for download from the NA for £3.50 - they quote 1.25 million saved out of 6.5 million, which is less than 20%. A few extra % come from other files (the so-called 'pension' files on Ancestry) but nowhere near another 20%. So you should be grateful for what you have.

And there is always PIN 26 if you are feeling really lucky.

Save the £3.50 and look here
