Polish your boots. Remember to practice swimming. Don't insult your officers. Don't lick the spark plugs. Don't play pranks on the NCOs. Avoid bar fights with Marines. Stay out of restricted areas. Keep your bunk area in inspection-passing conditions at all times. Don't doodle on the hatches.

Of course tell him how proud you and the family are, and then lighten up, tell him stuff pretty much just like what mutantw suggests. His world is about to do a 180, it will be thrilling, scary, exciting and dangerous, not necessarily from enemies but from some like the women who yell Hey Sailor. Tell him to follow the others and do the right thing, that doing the right thing is the key to being personally responsible, and that he is that kind of person for serving his country.
If you are close to him, getting letters from home is a really cool thing, so write him a lot, encourage others to do so as well, and if he has a girl tell her you will wring her neck if she dumps him while he is gone, so if she is thinking about it, do it now not later, or else.

Stay away from any women who say, "Hello, sailor!" Just kidding.
Tell him God bless and thank him for serving and protecting freedom.
