I was wearing a new shirt with "pre-sewn" patches during a game recently and was notified after the game by a veteran that the stars should always be closest to your heart. Unfortunatly, mine was not. Live and learn..

Um - stars are towards the front of the body (I guess that's closest to the heart). That was developed from the tradition of painting flags on airplanes with the blue field facing the front of the plane which, of course, comes from how a flag naturally flies on board a naval vessel.
