Men received white feathers during World War I as a symbol of cowardice from those who believed they were avoiding military service. The feathers were often given to men who were not in uniform, serving as a public shaming tactic to pressure them into enlisting. This practice highlighted the societal stigma surrounding military service and the intense peer pressure to participate in the war effort.
Roundheards wore metal armour and steel helmets, Cavalears wore more flowing, lacey uniforms and broad brimmed hats with feathers.
