Valerie Voigt reports that a Pagan Veterans association is in the process of forming. 

Its url is  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pagan-Veterans-USA/

Their organizational statement reads:

WHEREAS thousands of Pagan men and women have served and are serving the United States of America in the Armed Forces;

AND WHEREAS the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, created
to aid and assist veterans of the US Armed Forces, has demonstrated its
unwillingness to aid and assist Pagan veterans

AND WHEREAS the various veterans currently existing in the United
States such as The American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars and others
are heavily grounded in Christianity in their rituals, prayers and
practices;

AND WHEREAS Pagan veterans are largely made to feel excluded by these veterans organizations;

AND WHEREAS all veterans, combat, combat area and others need and
deserve the support of one another, both individually and through a
national organization created to serve them and their needs;

BE IT KNOWN that such an organization, Pagan Veterans of the USA is
formed to serve these individuals and their needs, and that membership
in this organization is open to any and all members of the US Army, US
Navy, US Marine Force, US Air Force and US Coast Guard possessing an
honorable or general discharge.

Dues, structure, local posts and other such organizational decisions to
be made at the organizations first national meeting to be held in early
November, 2009.

I hope Pagan veterans who are reading this blog will take the time to get involved.  I wish them well.
