Her flag is right but US Airforce is a mirror image . So odd. I'm going to. Buy one of those cameras.

Each tintype is usually a camera original, so the image is usually a mirror image, reversed left to right from reality. Sometimes the camera was fitted with a mirror or right-angle prism so that the end result would be right-reading.
