    Just as a sidenote you can't apply the network discounts if you purchased through a third party, and Vodafone also offer a forces pause on their contract, where if you get deployed, you can pause your contract for up to 6 months in any given 2 year period. You won't have access to the phone services but you won't be charged and it WILL extend the contract, so you'll pay the same overall but at least you're not paying for a service you potentially can't use.

Im thinking about getting out and joining the British army because I’m tired of the entire world relying on me being a superhero protecting the world of bad guys. Too much responsibility. To much on my plate to where if I mess up the entire world will know. The U.S. Army is held to such a high standard it can get overwhelming.
