On August 31, the flag at the Captain Albert Borella and Australian VC recipient's memorial, outside Peards Albury, was stolen by a man in the early hours of the morning.
That week the flag had been lowered to half mast to mark the death and funeral of Tim Fischer.
At the time, Peards owner George Benyon offered a $1000 reward for information about the man who took the flag.
