We’ve whupped the damned Yankees, and the invaders are reported to be in panic-stricken retreat from the sacred soil of the Old Dominion:

Dignitaries, history buffs and thousands of reenactors gathered on the hills and fields outside Manassas on Thursday to mark the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Bull Run, the first major battle of the Civil War.
Amid oppressive July weather, those assembled paused to remember the day — July 21, 1861 — when historians say the nation realized the war would not be a pageant, and instead could be long and bloody.

By God, that’ll teach those arrogant cowards not to mess with us!
