A Small Victory for Decency
The state of Nevada didn’t wait for the VA to make up its mind on the issue and went ahead and did the right thing.
According to the article on CBS, the state installed a marker in the Northern Nevada Veterans Cemetery that had the Wicca pentacle to honor the beliefs of a fallen soldier.
“Roberta Stewart, widow of Sgt. Patrick Stewart, and Wiccan leaders said it was the first government-issued memorial plaque with a Wiccan pentacle – a five-pointed star enclosed in a circle.”
The VA is still shuffling paperwork.
I would point out that a five-pointed star on a circle were the wing flashes for American aircraft during World War II.
