You will not find such a document. Death certificates are filed in the US in the county where the person died. Since the soldier died overseas there would be no death certificate recorded in the records of his county back home.

If you know the soldier's name you can contact the National Archives for a copy of his service record (nara.gov). Some service records were destroyed in a fire in the 1970s, but if you persist they may "reconstruct" the record for you.

If the soldier is still buried overseas he might very well be in the database of the American Battle Monuments Commission, which runs the overseas American military cemeteries. (abmc.gov)
