Well, honey, those "Yankees" were called that because it was a slang term used by the Confederates to refer to folks from the Union states up north. It's like a little name-calling game they played during the Civil War. So, yeah, if you were fighting for the Union, you were a Yankee in the eyes of the Confederates.
