You can request almost anything from your grandfather's records; there is also a provision in US Code in that the next of kin can one-time request a set of medals/ribbons that are listed/found in the records. There should be a citation for the various decorations (NMC Commendation/Achievement, etc.) in the records, and for the others, you can find the backgrounds/history online. I worked in the USAF Awards office which received the SF180s, and verified eligibility for medals/decs. PM me if you want more info.
