A British officer resigns his post just before battle and subsequently receives four white feathers from his friends and fiancee as symbols of what they believe to be his cowardice.
When something like this happens you are lost. You don't know who you are anymore and what you're capable of. Unless I do something this is always how people will remember me. A feather. And that is how I will always see myself: a coward. All I know is that I can't live with myself like this.
— Are you a deserter?
— Something like that. I was sent to fight and I ran away.
— Why?
— Why? I just... There are many reasons why. Mostly I was afraid.
— I found you halfdead crossing the desert alone. And you say you are afraid?
— There's a different kind of fear. Why are you protecting me?
— God put you in my way. I have no choice.
