I was referring to the Rebel Yell in particular. Especially the one in the first video at 2.53. Given by a 90 year old civil war veteran recorded in 1935 btw.

Just as a matter of interest to you. There's evidence that the Rebel Yell has Celtic origins and was brought to the south by Scottish colonists.
