A Texas veteran is relieved after learning it wasn't vandals, but squirrels that stole American flags from a memorial he'd put up in his yard.
The vet had put together a nice flag memorial in his garden using 10 flags. Then they started disappearing. Needless to say the former soldier was upset. That’s when a neighbor stepped it with the help of a security camera.
The Air Force vet's daughter says he laughed when a neighbor showed him video of squirrels making off with small flags from his yard in San Antonio. The video shows two squirrels taking one of the small flags off a wooden sticks, and carrying it off. The neighbor tracked the squirrels and found that the rodents used the ten small flags to build a nest in a nearby tree.
