Anything after discharge from WW1 service will be with the MOD.

Follow the link as given above and complete the relevant forms. Copies of the records will cost you £30 and months of waiting.

If you mean National service as a general query.......google is your friend :-D

Hello Sarah, wonder if this might be him?

Royal Artillery attestations 1883-1942
First name(s) George Thomas
Last name Langford
Age -
Birth year -
Birth place -
Service number 11271287
Former service number -
Attestation year 1941

From FindMyPast

ADDED: There's very little information. From what I can make out he was posted to H.A.A (whatever that is) 17/06/1942 and appears to have been discharged 27/11/1943 - circumstances xviii, think that means services no longer required.
