What Is a "Tar Heel"?

Caption: A postcard from the Civil War. The words on the foot say:



The Tar Heels Roll of Honor.
North Carolina lost 40,375 of her sons.


God Bless North Carolina


Here's to the Land of the Long Leaf Pine


The Summer land where the Sun doth Shine
Where the Weak grow Strong and the Strong grow Great
Here's to North Carolina, the Good Old Tar Heel State.
