Thank you for that Nate

I think I had that wrong

I once thought the Clintons had reversed it for aesthetics, however the field of stars does lead!

Well done!

I asked my wife about this once, because marines don't normally wear flag patches so I didn't know... she responded quite simply, it's the way the flag would flutter as if running into rather than away from.
