Pechs,

Uniformed regulations - The stars have to be facing forward. You can wear a
flag on your uniform on the right shoulder as long as the stars are forward.
(The right shoulder has to be a command decision, not the individual) If
they are reversed, it should not be allowed.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Jake

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?

Got it Capt and thanks. In all the squadrons I have been in (10 or so) none had
the 'standard' be an American flag on either shoulder, hence my ignorance.
Some guys wore this (but they were on the left and 'proper', but most put the
A/C on the left, Nothing on the right. Some had 1000 hr patches instead, but
again, on the left.
