U.S. Navy aircraft with 11 onboard crashes into ocean near Okinawa

Is that for "Duty Status Unknown" specifically? I always thought it was 48 hrs from notification of NOK.
I'm passing this along for any of you who might have crossed paths with Deet.
In the wake of such an unimaginable incident this past week, the outpouring of support and love for Deet and Det 5 has come from all over the globe. It is clear how many lives were touched by this amazing young man. While many of us loved him, he has family right now missing him most.
In the days that have passed there have been messages posted all over social media and phone calls being made to so many. This lead to the creation of TributesToDeet@gmail.com. It is our hope that anyone who feels inclined and has worked with Deet at any time throughout his Navy career, submit a photo and note (or just simply a note) remembering Deet. While his family holds him close to their hearts, it is important to us that they be given the opportunity to perhaps see photos they've never seen and learn more about his military family and what Deet meant to us. It is my hope to compile everything submitted to be able to present to his family. While an official date of his memorial in Iwakuni is not yet set, any submissions to the email listed above are highly encouraged to occur within the next two weeks.
Thank you

Be very careful about sharing any of that, I know of several NOK's who have found out that way and that is never good.
