Oh, and Wiccans can now have pentacles on their military graves.
Wicca is a fairly new religion in the grand scheme of things, and centers on a nature-based view of the world. It has gained a pretty large following in it’s 50 or so years, and is pretty fun to practice, if you like chanting and drums.
If you know any Wiccans in the military, congratulate them. It was a hard-won battle for them to get the same respect that is afforded to every other religion in the world (not including wacky cults like the New Heavens Gate and Scientology), and it was a deserved win.
And Bush is a giant asshole.
