Pgs 49-91
Red Badge of Courage

The self doubt of Henry is the only thing holding him back now as the enemy rushes toward him. The soldiers, who are more experienced than he is, mock him and the fellow "fresh troops". In past chapters, he thought the glorious aspect of being in the military would hold true, but in this first battle of his, in the misty forest, he is torn, for it is not a glamorous as it seems. The wimp inside of him, he fears, will shove him away from battle, though his regiment needs him. The enemy soldiers, after much wait,  attack, Henry, hearing his captain shout orders, realized he's part of a team, and knows that he is not alone. They seemed to have won the battle, but Henry wakes from his slumber after the first victory, to see the enemy advancing once again. Henry feels alone again in the panic of such news, and ends up giving in to his inner wimp, and running away from the battle, something that he will regret and despise for many years, i'm sure.
