It has finally happened, the Pentagram (single point up) has been
approved for use on military headstones and is now listed as the Wiccan 
symbol.
Here is a story on it from CNN

Ok, it has been approved for use on markers in Virgina. Nothing has been
mentioned about the rest of the country. 
However, now that one state can use them it will be a major boon to
families in other states 
wishing to have the pentagram on the headstone of fallen military
service members.

 Last post failed for some reason.
Here's some info to clarify the remarks above.
The VA is the Department of Veterans Affairs which is often referred
to as "the VA". The settlement allows the families of deceased
military and Veterans to request the Pentacle to be placed on the
headstone/marker/plaque no matter what state or territory.
