DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Is it ok if I have a second grade class send letters to my sons division? Also, can we send newspaper articles or should we scan them and send? Thanks to anyone who can answer these questions..the second graders are so excited to send letters to our SR's....

It is fine to have a class send letters to your sons division. You can put them all in a manila envelope and send them to your son. You might want to give him a heads up that they are coming, and ask him to pass them out, especially to those not receiving mail. Have the kids put their return address them, some may get note back.
For the newspaper articles, some RDCs allow them some do not. I would scan them to regular paper before sending them .
