We honor all military personnel who died serving in the U.S. armed forces
In Pagan Community Notes, the US honors the war fallen, we report on the destruction of the Glastonbury Thorn, a rumor about Sweden banning runes, Berkano Hearth Union disbands and more!
TWH – Today marks Memorial Day in the United States. It is a day to honor the many men and women who have died in military service. The departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs together reportedly state that over “1.2 million people have died fighting for America during its wars dating back 241 years.” The VA has a breakdown of the losses per conflict since the American Revolution. In a 2016 blog post, Druid John Beckett wrote, “Let us remember our warrior dead. Let us remember those who answered the call to do what had to be done and who sacrificed all they had. It is right and good to celebrate their courage and valor.”
Many Pagans, Heathens and polytheists have served or are serving in the U.S. military, and still others are members of military families.
