...to all the atheist veterans that have served in our armed forces. And yes, there ARE atheists in foxholes.

One might ask if the person in the first picture was aware of how his image was to be used. I know I wouldn't have a problem with it.

While I know many atheists have died for nationalistic ideals, the first and the last images on the OP are obvious fakes. superimposed letters.

What a shame.

Good question. The tag around his neck makes me wonder if he was part of the commemoration ceremony. Also, I'm happy to know that this is in my home state.

I googled "atheist and humanist veteran headstones" and I'm seeing the same headstones in my original post. They are not pixilated.
