Thank you all for the reply. Since my cousin found the records in TN library, I also found a researcher in Wash. D.C. who looked up the compiled service records for me there and I am awaiting their arrival to see if there is anything new. I do understand that the Pension Record will have to come from elsewhere if he applied/qualified for one. Unfortunately, I do not know where he went after the war. Elaine
