What does the actual "Rebel Yell" sound like? In this fascinating movieclip from the 30s a group of Civil War veterans gathered to take turns stepping up to a microphone to do their versions of the "Rebel Yell". While some of them were getting rather long in the years they could still do a imposing version of the battle cry. The wisecracking between the veterans on the different attempts is also a hoot. | Alabama Pioneers

The “Rebel Yell” refers to the distinctive battle cry used by Confederate soldiers during the American Civil War. It was intended to intimidate Union troops and boost the morale of Confederate fighters during charges and combat. While there’s no single recorded version of the yell, it was described by Union soldiers as eerie, high-pitched, and chilling—unlike any normal cheer or shout.
