If Christians, Muslims, Jews, or whoever, want to decorate their own military cemetery with the symbols of their faith, that is their right. However, this lawsuit was, indeed, brought by a Jewish veterans' group, among others. The solution was found in privatizing the site. That was appropriate.

I point out, however, that atheists serve in foxholes.

"Atheists in a Foxhole" is an essay by Byron E. Garcia, who served in the Middle East, from the Rebirth of Reason website:

Military Atheists and Freethinkers:
Besides the MAAF members below, keep in mind atheists in foxholes whose stories have been in feature stories and documentaries: Pat Tillman, Afghanistan war Army Ranger and football player, Hans Kasten, WWII POW leader, Phil Paulson, Vietnam Veteran and activist, Kurt Vonnegut, WWII POW and author, Ted Williams, WWII Veteran and baseball player, Ernest Hemingway, WWI Vet and author, Sherwin Wine, Founder of Humanistic Judaism, Major Sidney Excell, who arrested Heinrich Himmler, Bob Kerrey, former Governor and Senator, Navy Seal, and Medal of Honor recipient. - See more at: http://militaryatheists.org/atheists-...

It is an old, unresolved issue here in the Gulch. If you want to go around again, in response to "there are no atheists in foxholes," Ayn Rand asked: "Who created the foxholes?" Wars are caused by political collectivism, which rests on moral altruism, which is derived from epistemological and metaphysical mysticism. It was the Age of Reason that led to the Enlightenment and capitalism and 100 years 1814-1914 of surprisingly low-level conflicts. It was not perfect, because the capitalism was not firmly grounded, but it indicated a truth we all know: when people can obtain what they need by production and trade, they have no need for war.

This just goes to show one what happens when the LEFT of center (no pun intended) has there way.
