I've always wondered how the rebel yell sounded like. It turns out the Smithsonian has some archived footage of ACW vets calling it.

Oh noes! They were holding (GASP) Confederate Flags at a public event! Why, the NERVE of them to hold symbols of hate and offensive offensiveness! We should track down all the descendants of all of those people in the film and call them out for supporting hate and being against diversity* and tolerance**! Those little kids are possibly still alive today! Let's go find them and tell them how our safe spaces have been violated! :'( ::)

That got my blood pumping! I'm ready to march on Yankeeville. Nice find, LB.
That's a beautiful find, truly sends shivers up the spine. Now imagine doing that at full charge with thousands of men!!!
Great find LB. I was curious at to what the sound was like. It must have been terrifying to those on the receiving end, something like the Jehrico sirens on Stukas.

Another reason why the South invaded the North and not the other way around 8)
Just went to The Woodlands Mall up here in far north Houston this past weekend so my daughter could do some shopping for her friend's birthday...I hate the malls now, whereas I used to love them. This one is especially a pain in the ass as it's always crowded with upper-class asshole suburbanites (some stupid bitch in a Lexus almost hit me cutting me off without a turn signal...damn, I'm glad I don't own a gun).
You'd expect it to be an Ugg-fest, but surprisingly, I only spotted one pair being worn, and it was on a woman. Bitch in the Lexus was probably wearing them though.
That's the very same sound I made the first time I got it caught in my zipper. Go figure. ???
Very cool. Thanks for sharing this.
Uggs? ???
For the benefit of everyone outside of the occupied territories of the Confederate States of America ;) , or the Loyal States of the Union ;) ...

There is a
slightly more involved explanation, but in order to preserve the proper level of
humiliation decorum we shall elaborate no further.
