Allow people with coeliac disease to join the armed forces

What the petition asks
I would like the Government to supply gluten free food/ration packs for people with coeliac disease so that people with the disease can join the armed forces.
I want Parliament to support this decision because the armed forces are currently under recruited and there are low levels of employment for our country. There are many people that have coeliac disease that would love to join the army, including me, and I believe that allowing the ever increasing amount of people with coeliac disease to join the armed forces, would be beneficial for both them and our country.
