Dad's old Raleigh

I'm hoping you guys might be able to help me identify the Raleigh my dad bought sometime in the 80s or 90s. I have a vague idea of what it was but I saw it last 10 years ago after it had been hit by a snowplow.

I don't have any pictures but I'm hoping a description might yield something of use.

-Likely later 80s or early 90s.
-mens diamond shaped frame
-Black paint
-Upright handlebars
-Lower end
-Rear derailleur, 5 or 6 speed. I'm pretty sure it didn't have a front derailleur.
-Sprung saddle
-It had a Raleigh decal and a little flag symbol made of yellow, red, black or orange lines.
-Mostly steel parts
-Steel silver fenders (maybe an add-on)
-Foam handgrips

I know it isn't much to go on. I'm more well versed in Raleighs before the 1980s and don't know much about the later incarnations.
