Dear Noreen,
Welcome to MLU.!
Always interesting to hear from people trying to find out more about their relatives. You have a name, date and place of birth and I bet the number on his duffle bag is his service number. That would be your starting point to further your research using the tips & tricks as outlined by the late founder of this site, Geoff Winnington-Ball:
