The Cross and dogtag are fastened together at the loop for the chain but allows the cross separate movement from the tag.  I give the pendent 5 stars, but the chain is cheap trash.  Buy the necklace for the pendent, but plan on buying a better chain.  I purchased a sterling silver snake chain to hang it on and it looks terrific.  I'm 5'9", 170Lbs and it is the perfect size...not too big, not too small.
