LONDON - Britain on Monday banned all military service members from talking
to the media in return for payment, a day after it said the 15 marines and
sailors who were held captive in Iran could sell their stories.

Defense Secretary Des Browne issued a statement saying the navy faced a
"very tough call" over its initial decision to allow the
payments. The new ban will not affect any of the 15 service members held
captive in Iran who already given accounts, a Defense Ministry spokesman
said.
