I wanted to make thread to help my fellow Vegetarians out there. There isnt that much information about being vegetarian at boot camp, but there is plenty on being a well informed non meat eater. I will keep posting articles I find on healthy non meat eating and I plan on taking notes about the galley food and once I graduate I will write back on how it was being a vegetarian.
To start things off here is a great and short article about Iron. It something most vegetarians think about and It is a lot easier to get than you would think.
