Go on the british army site, and fill in a form, they will reply giving you the address and cost to send to.
You have to pay for them to do a search and it takes 3 months to get an answer. You can clain any unclaimed medals as well if you are the next of kin

Try to find out about his regement! Regements have museum collections of plunder and captured standards - a veteran is usually the curator and very likely knows someone who was in the reg. in the war!

touch the MOD branch, i carried out the comparable for my grandfather, they provides you with all of the small print, at a value however.. i think of it became £30 for the coaching. as for the memorabilia as quickly as you detect what regiment he became in then you quite can touch the regiment museum and supply them copies or the originals in case you like! sturdy success
