Ken Burns also quoted some elderly Confederate vet, asked years after the war to do a rebel yell after a banquet, said it was impossible to do it justice as just a single person, after a good meal and with proper clothes on your back.

That actually was Foote. I believe the anecdote was also in his history.
From the movies:
All Blacks in the South were slaves.
No matter what, every person in the war spoke eloquently and longingly of their lives and love back home.
Also, if you were black, then you were always inches from being caught and sent back to slavery but it’d never happen. You’d always be saved by the former racist- turned-warm hearted white soldier that you were having problems with before.
I’m still trying to figure out how his couscous got burdened.

So it falls to me, I see, to defend the honor of the 1st Moroccan Volunteer Infantry…
There was a TV show in the late fifties starring actor Nick Adams as Johnny Yuma, the Rebel.
If my memory is working, He traveled the West in his Confederate uniform, and at some point in every show, he got punched out. (Take off the uniform, you dumbass!)
Ahh…here it is.
