Our son was stationed in Fallujiah. He had a global phone and was able to call his (now ex)wife every day, sometimes several times a day.

My husband does that a lot. It’s irritating. Particularly when his phone left messages in my voice mail that went on endlessly. I usually called him back a little later and left a VM telling him, "Your dick called me again today. Please lock your phone or I will relay the next message through your ass. :wink:
