It is not nuts at all. It is tough to eat gluten free even in the regular world and in the field or a war zone it would be a risk not only to the celiac but to the whole platoon if the celiac was to be glutened. Not only would the D be a problem but also celiac can effect every system in the body including the brain. My DS was an undiagnosed celiac when he joined the Army. The effects of the disease which came on full force due to the stress of boot camp and specialized training combined with the high gluten diet that those folks are fed were horrible. Not only was he in pain he also had severe neuro issues that to put it mildly made him more than a bit unstable.

they let vegan's in the militiary and make special meals for them. why should having a wheat intolerance be any different? i think this is a huge issue since celiacs disease is growing.

Perhaps it is because if a vegan accidentally ingests something not on the diet, their immune system does not react making them physically ill.
