It is interesting that there doesn't appear to be any definitive "the rebel yell" but just yelling, mostly in a higher register.
At the end of Ken Burn's civil war documentary there is video of someone doing a rebel yell at (I think) one of the last Gettysburg reunions.

There is even limited interviews with ww 1 veterans. It would be have been even greater if they could interview these old men in 30s. But unfortunately then, even film shooting was a limited thing.

I read sometimes about the pace of change in our modern world, but think of all the changes these people saw from the Civil War days.
Steam power, powered flight, photography and movies, electricity, the end of sailing ships, motor cars!
They all seem a little out of place (and time) in this clip.
