View from the back showing the stress relief loop.  The small yellow loop floats inside the coat.  The function of this loop is to absorb any stress to the outer shell that is applied during use.  When the strap is extracted from the coat the spreading action which takes place puts pressure on the outside of the exit points.  This small loop prevents damage to the area by restricting the spreading at the point of exit. (also made of Kevlar). Picture also reveals that Capt. Dennis Corr (Bullet) is in dire need of another hair cut.
