Combat Nutrition
I recently heard Bruce Siddle (Sharpening the Warriors Edge) speak about the lack of education in this field. For any active duty or recently separated personnel, did you ever learn about "proper" nutrition for combat.....did anyone tell you what you should and should not but into your body before engagement and just as important, after engagement?
Thanks
