Exactly. He could be buried with no religous symbol, some other symbol perhaps his unit or something.
His wife is making disrespectful scene out of this, no doubt for some agenda she has. We don’t need another Cindy Sheehan.
I have sympathy with her for her loss, and am grateful to him for his service.
You?
Yes, she has an agenda. She'd like the symbol of her husband's faith to adorn his gravestone at Arlington --as the followers of 37 other "authorized" religions are allowed to do.
The only thing disrespectful is the way her husband's religion is dismissed as unworthy of a symbol upon his grave.
