On the news I see the American flag on the right shoulder of the Army, but it
seems backwards, blue field on the right instead of the left...

Insight?

Blue field facing forward.

Or in the case of Navy pilots, just accumulate enough experience so that you
can cover one shoulder with a 1,000 hrs patch (or x,000 hrs as appropriate)
and the other with a unit patch or TOPGUN patch if applicable. No flag
required.
