A U.S. Marine was seen on a security camera at an Airbnb in California untangling an American flag.
The Marine was staying at a house in Oakhurst when he saw an American flag tangled outside, the New York Post reported. He was seen in the video jumping on to the porch’s railing to untangle the flag.
