Where was your son baptized? On post or on the economy?
If he was baptized on post - contact the nearest base chaplain and explain to them what you need - they would be able to help you faster. I am a military (ret) spouse and am not sure if they keep these records, but I would think so. What denomination? Does the minister understand this was done overseas?
I hope you can get what you need.

If he was baptised in a church off base, he'll have to contact that parish directly to ask for a copy of the certificate. You would need to know the exact name of the parish to find the address.The correspondence will more than likely have to be done in German. I would also suggest to send it certified or something similar. And be prepared for it to take quite a while as such things usually take there time in Germany (bureaucracy etc).
I hope you don't mind my asking, what happened to the original that would have been given to you and your wife at the time of the baptism?

Good luck
