I have a friend in the navy eveytime he email me it says 051(sw) what does that mean in rank?

sw is surface warfare, it means he qualified for his SW pin.

No such thing as "SW Pin" There is an ESWS (Enlisted Service Warfare Service) pin and SWO (Surface Warfare Officer) pin, but no SW - Again, SW is vessel category not rank or achievement pin. Report Abuse

Reply:051(sw) is not a Navy Rank. And, to my knowledge it is not a "rate" which designates the type of assignments they have and work that they do. Military e-mail addresses do not typically include rank. However military e-mail addresses typically designate duty station/assignment location, such as identifying the specific ship he is assigned to.

Looks pretty cheap. Maybe you could buy it and ship it to him for Christmas.
