For starters, he’s got the Army and name tapes reversed, which isn’t necessarily decisive. (It happened to me once, shortly after the ACUs were introduced. I kept one of my old BDUs in my closet for months to remind myself which side was which. As a memory device, I decided that the Army was a left-wing organization, and that I was always right. That did the trick.)

Of course, any poser who had done any research at all would know that your rank doesn’t belong on your name tape. Idiot.

Years ago, at a time when my duty uniform was the Class B, I deliberately put my name tag on the wrong side of my shirt on April Fool’s Day; no one said anything all day. In contrast to my unintentional ACU switch, when a staff sergeant very diplomatically called my attention to my error; I thanked her and switched them back on the spot.
