That is actually the way the flag is supposed to be sewn onto things if I recall correctly.
EDIT:
Did some google searching, and it seems there is no such national law or edict or anything else perscribing how or it what direction to place the American flag. The Boy Scouts have the stars on the left on the right shoulder, and the military has the stars on the right on the right shoulder.
Simply, its just the way the military chose to display the flag.
