Original Note:
It's unlikely this image is of a US soldier. The flag on his right shoulder is the normal way round, but on US uniforms it is reversed so that the stars are in the top right hand corner. In addition the US flag on the left shoulder should be at the top, not the bottom. https://www.businessinsider.com/heres-why-the-american-flag-is-reversed-on-military-uniforms-2017-5 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/4/7
