Flying the Union Flag (not Jack!) upside down is a recognised distress signal - perhaps the Army is playing its own little joke?

The full-color U.S. flag cloth replica is worn so that the star field faces forward, or to the flag’s own right. When worn in this manner, the flag is facing to the observer’s right, and gives the effect of the flag flying in the breeze as the wearer moves forward.
