Why is it wrong?
What should it be?
John, see my post above. The unit patch on the right sleeve denotes participation with said unit in a combat theater where the operation lasts more than 30 days. The SF tab is not part of any SF or other unit patch, it is a special skill tab. The patch for an SF unit is the arrowhead with the Airborne tab immediately above, since every SF Group is an airborne unit. That is what should be on his right sleeve, assuming he actually served with said unit in a combat theater. Special skill tabs like SF or Ranger (Airborne tab is not a special skill tab, nor is the Mountain tab as in 10th Mountain Division) are worn on the left sleeve above the current unit patch.
He is wearing the National Colors correctly on the uniform.
