Victor is married and he and his wife are very devoted to each other. Then one day comes the summons for Victor to go to war and it is with a gamut of emotions that the news is received in the small household. Finally the time of his departure arrives and his wife, about to become a mother, is heartbroken. But the father is glad that his son is leaving for the front, and expects that he will return covered with medals. But love comes ahead of patriotism, and that night Pierre and the little wife are astounded when Victor appears. Before long the officers have come in search of him, but Pierre with great dignity reminds the officers of his own valor and they do not search the house, out of consideration of him. Later, Victor realizes his duty to his country and leaves for the front. He returns, minus an arm, to his family and finds that he is a father. Pierre is now proud of his brave boy.
