General: Marines, put down those cell phones!

No more FaceTime with the honey back home while on deployment. It is about time modern Marines suffer the same communications-deprivations I had to suffer when deployed. It was heavenly to get in a 3-minute (scratchy) MARS call every few months while on deployment to Okinawa.
The CMC is concerned because cell phones are emitters and give away locations to potential enemies.
