You'll have to get the NOK to sign and then apply for his records from the MOD

One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

However, if he served in India and changed regiments the British Library has many complete service histories of such people up to the date of independence in 1947.
