A source of military records that is unorthodox but interesting and potentially extremely rewarding is old newspaper records. Local newspapers did not often publish articles about what the hometown boys were doing on the front during times of war. Soldiers sometimes wrote home to the local papers, as well. This is what you can find on your military ancestor in digitized old newspaper records online.
