I requested my maternal uncle’s military records regarding his service in WWII. They withheld all but 4 pages, and even those were heavily redacted. I know he was in Europe and he was an officer. I don’t think he was ever in combat. He was fluent in English, Spanish, Russian and German. As kids, we were told not to ever ask him about his service - it was all hush hush. The war ended 76 years ago. Why would his records be so inaccessible?

Not an answer, but a clarification which might help you get a better answer: which country’s military did he serve in?
