Uncited material and other references[edit]

Cites?

The episode name is a parody of Stephen Crane's novel The Red Badge of Courage.
The name "Jägerminz" parodies Jägermeister and Rumple Minze, which are mixed together in a popular shot called a "Screaming Nazi".
Upon Kenny's death, Cartman writes a letter to Kenny's mother stating that Kenny was killed at "Ruby Hills Funland in Chattanooga." This is a parody of Ruby Falls, a Chattanooga attraction that includes a playground called the Fun Forest.

Relevance?

At the sight of the confederacy, Clinton's adviser remarks "It's like the Million Man March except there are actually a million people." Isaac Hayes, the voice of Chef, sang at the Million Man March.
After General Cartman Lee makes his demands to Bill Clinton, Al Gore states "Boy I'm glad I don't have your job" (the Presidency). A little under a year after the initial running of this episode, Al Gore would go on to lose the 2000 presidential election to George W. Bush.
As in most educational Civil War movies, every letter read is read in the voice of the writer (in this case, Cartman) and a small window appears on the screen with a portrait of the writer.
At the beginning of the re-enactment, each side displays a different Confederate flag.
Al Gore appeared and was depicted differently in Manbearpig and Imaginationland Episode III.
While playing General Lee, Cartman keeps the soldiers in line by keeping them drunk. This is ironic as the real General Lee was a teetotaler.
