The Rebel Yell struck fear into the hearts of outmaneuvered Yankees, yes, but what did it sound like? This short video from the Smithsonian offers a clue:
It sounds like a... like a... game call. You'll note, too, how much more civilized in speech and demeanor we were before progress, aka Marxism, took its toll. The same thing, absent game call, holds true for Great Britain, see Elizabeth II who spoke as she should. I won't go on, but what a video, well done those men.
On topic, a visitor turned up at one of the Missions today, with Deo Vindice emblazoned on the back of his rig. He felt warmly welcomed, you may be assured of that.

Let me sing for you the song of my people. Well, some of them, anyway (kin on both sides, ya-know).
Same ticket here, Wild.
Sadly, we're down to Billy Gibbons being all that is left of ZZ Top. And they hung on for 50 years!
NFO, it's a thing. Willie's still here though, just.
In the 70s, the CSA was very popular everywhere. I had a buddy, (a Jew from NJ) who had a rebel flag logo on his bank checks. Every bank offered this in those days. I read about a retailer in Long Island NY selling out of flags (and cowboy hats) ahead of a Skynyrd concert in Nassau County. Seems to have gone out of style now for some reason. However, here in central Maryland, there's a home a couple miles down the road that still flies either the First National or the Battle Flag every day.
