          Appeal No. 2004-1403                                                        
          Application No. 09/908,224                                 Page 4           


          system.  Rather, it is plain from reading claim 71 that the claim           
          language in question is merely descriptive of the impact                    
          resistance of the first layer, described in terms of when that              
          layer receives an impact from a projectile before the second                
          layer of the armor system, not an imputation of a projectile as             
          an implicit component part of the claimed armor system.                     
               For the above stated reasons, we will not alter our                    
          decision, mailed June 30, 2004, as urged by the appellants in               
          their Request.                                                              
               The Request for Rehearing is denied.
