This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

Eight Legendary Battle Cries-- Part 1: The Rebel Yell
From the May 21, 2015, History Channel.
1. "Tenno Heika Banzai"-- Japanese Banzai charges during World War II.
2. The Rebel Yell-- Writer Ambrose Bierce described it, "It was the ugliest sound that any mortal ever heard." A banshee scream shrill yelp like a coyote would make.
3. Greek "Alala" and "Eleleu" They would yell this while banging their weapons on their shields.
4. "There is no land for us beyond the Volga." -- Soviet defenders of Stalingrad during World War II.
