Civil War Music- Southern Version of The Battle Cry of Freedom

I was born and raised in the south but had never heard this southern version of this very popular tune until these very talented young musicians gave this rendition at a Civil War reenactment in Houston, Missouri in the fall of 2010. The Yankees are trying to win by controlling the media. But it is still to early to tell.

@Stargate404 the cross on the flag

[Stargate404]
