I saw it on the news. The soldier had his phone in his pocket and brushed up against whatever and it speed dialed his parents unbeknownst to him. I guess he will be able to use his parents as witnesses in his claim against the VA down the road for this incident.

Why does he have a cell phone anyway

The roming charges have got to suck

I though they put a ban on them a while back becuse there was soldiers using them instead of doing there job, they were cought talkeing on them in a fight and some soldiers got hurt

As I remember it, he was on the line to the folks when shit broke out, he hung up but hit the redial button. So the story goes,
I think Tenn-Ranger nailed it.
