Problems with Bringing Your Cell Phone into Combat
There's something grimly amusing about this story. A soldier in Afghanistan was in a firefight and accidentally pressed a button on his cell phone that called his parents. They heard about three minutes of a firefight on their voicemail. It seems like a bad idea to have your cell phone on in combat.

Suppose, for example, you're laying an ambush. It would ruin it to have your phone go off at an inopportune moment.
