Imagine finding a giant American flag in the garbage, beaten up, torn, and dirty.
That's what happened to Al Tessmann, a veteran of the Iraq war.
Tessmann discovered the flag while unloading trash at a the Portage County Solid Waste Transfer Facility.
"To my surprise there was this flag amongst all of the garbage," said Tessmann.
Upset at the sight he rescued the flag that he once fought for.
"For me you know, it was like finding a fallen comrade," added Tessmann.
He brought it to the V.F.W. post in Plover.

UPDATE
Really angry over this story. This is how patriots treat flags. Watch the video and see how they respect and honor the flag.
