HI Jenny
Sorry Jenny these records aren't available online.

As your Grandad served during WW2 his army service records will be held by the MOD. If you are a next of kin you can request his records by completing a Subject Access Request and a Certificate of Kinship, I think you also have to provide a copy of his death certificate. There is a non refundable fee of £30 charged. Sometimes it can take a while for you to receive anything if at all.

You can download the forms from Army Records Office

The address to send them to is also on that page..
