The WW II is the most likely answer. Many Intelligence assets across the intelligence community got their start in the military and the 48 star flag would have been in use during Pearl Harbor attack in 1941. I doubt it would have been from the Arizona because that flag would be in a US Naval museum, but their were several other possibilities that a US Army or Navy Intelligence Officer might have gotten after the attack. Redford looks a bit young to have been serving then. But a young lieutenant or Ensign Junior Grade could have been maybe 22 years of age then making him 72 in 1991 the period covered in Spy Game.
