Stolen Naval Academy Flag Recovered

PHILADELPHIA - A Naval academy class flag that was ripped off over the weekend has been found.

A man stole the 1985 class flag from Benny the Bum's bar in South Philadelphia.

Surveillance video showed the thief shoving the flag down his pants.

"Apparently, several guys were drinking, there was a dare and took the flag and I’ve heard things that, you know, it was returned,” says Paul Rosmilso, of the class of '85.

Class members had left the flag hanging on the wall while they went to Saturday’s Army-Navy game.

No charges are expected.
