What is the significance of inverted flag on the Army uniforms?
Answer Hi Donna, The flag patch is worn in this manner as to give the impression that the flag is flying in the breeze, as the soldier moves forward. For details, see my article at: http://usmilitary.about.com/od/theorderlyroom/f/faqflag.htm.
