Shortly after the tweet was sent out, people quickly spotted a distinct difference between the photo posted and the original.
The original photo was cropped to eliminate βSan Diegoβ from the flag held by the service members.
Following the tweet, a Twitter account called "fightforSD" posted the following photo calling out the Chargers.
