Yes, this was brought up before. I had posted links to VFW etiquette rules. On 
uniforms, the stars are always 'forward', so one side would be reversed. It has 
to be placed so that when the person is walking forward, the stripes go to the 
back-signifying that the flag is moving forward (in battle). If you have the 
stripes facing forward and the stars to the rear-that signifies retreat...not 
acceptable.
That's the easiest way to explain it.
Otherwise-if on a jacket front or back-the stars are always to the left, 
stripes to the right.
