How Do I Stay in Touch?


A sailor emails his family.

While in the Navy, your child will always be a phone call or email away. Sailors have access to telephones, email, instant messaging, mail and other forms of communication. These services are offered anywhere your child might be stationed. (Even while underway at sea).

And Sailors are also eligible to fly on a space-available basis on many United States military flights — free — whether it’s to take a vacation abroad or to come home. If there’s a flight going where they want to go and there’s room aboard, they’re welcome to fly.
