General Albert Sydney Johnston At Shiloh

One of the Shiloh Battlefield tour stops (#17) Bob and I visited during our trip to Shiloh was where General Albert Sydney Johnston died during the battle. He had a bullet wound to his leg and was unaware he was bleeding heavily into his boot until he collapsed. He was considered one of the top generals with General Robert E. Lee and his loss was devastating to the Confederate Army. He was a measured military man with significant knowledge of the battlefield. Below is the monument at Shiloh to where he died. Information about him and the battle can be found here and here.
