The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs agrees to a settlement concerning the Wiccan use of the pentacle ... this was a process that started back in 1997.

Under the terms of the settlement ... the federal government will recognize the right of Wiccans to have the pentacle made available as an emblem of belief for inscription on headstones, grave markers and memorial plaques. The VA will add the symbol to its list of available emblems of belief.

Nevada Governor Kenny Guinn had stepped forward and approved the use of the pentacle on a verteran's headstone (Sgt. Patrick Stewart) last year.

*noddles* Yeah, I heard about that before. And I can't say I'm surprised...
