If the soldier were carrying a flag, the flag would appear "backwards" when viewed from the soldier's right. Thus, the right side patch is backwards. It's the same reason that the flag is painted backwards on the right side of airplanes and other vehicles.
In wartime the flag is worn backwards to show advancement.. take the flag and put it on a flag-pole and run at the enemy.. it flies backwards.. Hope this helped Flying the flag upsidedown is a sign of duress. The idea being that your enemies would not know which side was up but your friends would and would come to your aid.

Texas
The flag is not worn backwards but is worn, "facing home." This is a regulation that was ordered by the Department of the U.S. Army, Army regulation 670-1.

There is only one star on the Texas flag, which represents the Lone Star State.
The star that represents Texas is located in the far right vertical column. It is the star that is 2nd from the top. If you draw a rectangle shape with that particular star being on the left side of the rectangle, you will find that the Texas flag will appear within that rectangle. The Texas flag is always flying when a U.S. flag is flying. The Texas flag just happens to blend in to the U.S. flag until you place a rectangle around it. The Texas flag is the only state flag that is allowed to fly within the U.S. Flag.
