Civil War Video Friday: Confederate Veterans Give The Rebel Yell

Here's something special. Out of the vaults of the Library of Congress comes this video of a Civil War reunion from the 1930s. These Confederate veterans take turns to give out the famous rebel yell. Imagine these guys 70 years younger, with guns in their hands, and multiplied by 5000. It's amazing the Union troops held the line! Sorry I've been silent on the blog this week. I've been very busy writing up the artist reference for my next book for Osprey Publishing. I should have a more normal schedule next week.
