Dear Sir
I am trying to trace my father/grandfather who I understand was an American servicemen stationed in the United Kingdom (or other location) in 1943-45 (or other date).
I have completed the enclosed Search Information Sheet with as much information as I can and would be very grateful if you would try and locate any matching records for this person.
Yours faithfully
Signature
