    RAF Cranwell is RAF HQ so they would have info on all personnel past and present.

    you can get the number/address to write to by going into the forces careers office

    You write to the Commanding Officer of the Unit he served last when he retired from service. You can find this from his Discharge documents. The concerned CO will either tell you or will refer you to the correct agency where you can get all your info.

    Contact RAF Brize Norton and find out who keeps the records, it would probably be good if you roughly knew where he was based first??

    contact the MOD, as long as you have his details they should be able to point you in the right direction
