Good for them. They fought for our country, there’s no reason not to bury them under the symbol of the faith that they’ve chosen.

Wiccan pentacles point up.
But you know what? If you have died in the service of your country I figure you have earned the right to have what ever you want on your tombstone.

Whatever they want is fine by me too. I have my own salvation to worry about.

The only people who will care are the families and friends of the fallen soldiers. Though I might disagree with their beliefs, I salute their sacrifice to their country.

Points to where they’re going.

LOL. You are the first freeper I have encountered to ever suggest that Wiccans go to heaven (the point is up, btw).
Die for this country, and you have earned the right to put just about anything you want on your headstone.

The VA sought the settlement in the interest of the families involved and to save taxpayers the expense of further litigation, VA spokesman Matt Burns said. The agency also agreed to pay $225,000 in attorneys' fees and costs.VA idiots. This should have been settled a long time ago. If you can put Wiccan on your dog tags, you can have a Wiccan symbol on your headstone.

"If you can put Wiccan on your dog tags, you can have a Wiccan symbol on your headstone." Agreed. If our government allows Wiccans to serve in our military they should be allowed to have their symbol on their headstones.
To: Zakeet
Finally.
If a man is good enough to die for his country, he deserves to have his faith respected in this one, final gesture.
