Vest Patches

[RobV10]

Quick question all...I've seen a bunch of various ways that people put patches on their vests. Being military, the display of the American Flag is always to the "flag's right". Meaning that from the flag's perspective looking out to the public it will be displayed on the right side. This means as we look at it the flag will be displayed to the left. I assume that this is how it should be when put on a vest.

So my question is stars "in-board" facing the heart or "out-board" as we are used to seeing the flag?

Interesting. I would have gone to fists if argued that the flag is displayed on the viewers right side. I know in uniform it's worn on the right sleeve (see image).

Actually it depends on the branch of military. The Army wears it on the right, with the "backwards look". The Air Force flight suit wears it on the left (if the squadron allows you to wear it, but many dont), with a "normal looking" flag...

I know the Boy Scouts put the flag on the right shoulder at the highest position.
