Elderly Confederate veterans reenacted the "Rebel yell" decades after the Civil War at various reunions, with several of these rare performances captured in audio and silent film footage during the 1920s and 1930s. These recordings, though fainter than the original wartime cries, provide historical insight into the distinctive, high-pitched howl that once served as both a rallying cry and psychological weapon on the battlefield. | History In Pictures

The final Union veteran would outlive them all by five years. When these men were born, the United States had fewer than 35 states. Abraham Lincoln had not yet taken office. Photography was still new—slow, delicate, and uncommon. The country they entered as children looked vastly dif
