Most records are at the National Personnel Records Center in St Louis Missouri. If a veteran was recently discharged however, their record may be in the hands of the military. You can call the NPRC at 314 801 0800 to reach someone about funeral records. You need to fill out an sf180 to obtain the record. Here is a link. http://www.archives.gov/research/order/standard-form-180.pdf Mark funeral on the request and ask them to fax it to you. If the veteran was very recently discharge then you will want to contact the appropriate branch of the military. You can search for the branch by typing Army personnel command etc to find the right branch. However if you call the Records Center above, they can provide the right contact info. You need to call early in the morning or late in the evening to get through, however if it is for a headstone or Funeral Honors, you can get righ to someone. Do not pay private companies to get the record. You can get it just as fast. John
