I dont know how the Mil will legally be able to stand the potential onslaught of ' i have been there, seen it, so print it' stories. There are MANY who have seen and done things that would make for good reading right now, but as serving personnel it is neither allowed or wise, because of opsec etc. This is a dangerous precedent that has been set and i cannot see now why anyone cannot go to print whilst still serving. The lawers will have a hayday. I bet Max Clifford never thought he might have 50 000 serving members of HM forces on his books. A very bad call, that will return to bite with avengance.
