* HONORING SGT. STEWART: Roberta recently received word

from the Nevada Governor's office that Sgt. Stewart's plaque with

Pentacle on it is in production, and when it is completed in a few

weeks, it will be shipped to the state veterans cemetery in Fernley for

installation. On Sunday, October 29, Selena Fox, Roberta Stewart, and

others who were part of Circle Sanctuary's Samhain Festival dedicated a place at Circle Cemetery in memory of Sgt. Patrick Stewart. This

weekend, a Snowball Express race car will be running in memory of Sgt.

Stewart and other fallen soldiers in the Winternationals in Pomona,

California, to be covered on ESPN television.

 

* ACLU UPDATE: On September 28, the American Civil Liberties Union,

representing the Aquarian Tabernacle Church and others, filed a writ of

mandamus petition in a specialized administrative court, the US Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. This legal action calls for the VA to make a decision on the Pentacle. Although Americans United and Circle Sanctuary did not add their names to this filing for strategic reasons, we gave input and support. A judge was assigned to the case on October 4. On October 18, the judge ordered the Secretary of the VA to file an answer to the petition within 30 days. Thus far, the VA has not responded.

 

* VETERANS DAY PENTACLE WORKING: Please remember and send support to

the Veteran Pentacle Quest this Veterans Day, Saturday, November 11.
