Air Force ROTC eagle reported stolen
Eagle disappears over weekend
A $500 porcelain eagle,
donated to the Lamar Air
Force ROTC detachment,
has been reported stolen, Air
Force Capt. Fred W. Robit-
schek, administrative
assistant, said.
The eagle disappeared
sometime between midnight
Sunday, Sept. 21 and 8 a.m.
Monday, Sept. 22.
University police chief
Gene Carpenter said there
are no leads yet in the theft.
The free-standing sculp-
ture was loaned to the
AFROTC detachment by
Willie Mae Galloway, Gray
Library eighth floor direc-
tor.
“It’s a shame,” Galloway
said. “I bought the eagle for
the Bicentennial.” The eagle
was loaned to the AFROTC
because of the symbolism
between the eagle and the
Air Force, Robitschek said.
“We want it back. Not for
the ROTC, but for Mrs.
Galloway,” Robitschek said.
“She’s helped a lot of people
on campus.
Galloway said
replacement of the sculpture
would cost $1,500. “It would
take a strong person to take
the eagle away. I hope it’s a
prank,” Robitschek said.
