U.S. Army May Make Smartphones Standard Issue

The U.S. Army wants to issue every soldier a smartphone, both for training and in-the-field operations. According to the Army Times, approved devices might include iPhone or Android devices, and it is possible each soldier will have a choice of preferred device.

The Army also is looking at paying some portion of monthly phone bills for the troops.

Lt. Gen. Michael Vane, director of the Army Capabilities Integration Center said the Army would issue these smart phones just like any other piece of equipment a soldier receives.
