That's the first I heard of AS Johnston being shot by his own men

That's a new one for me, too. I doubt it although it happened frequently (both Jackson and Longstreet, among others).

Cleburne was the best the South had--a better subordinate commander than Jackson. One of my gr-grandfathers was in the 35th Illinois which freqently drew Cleburne as the opponent. Whoever gave his eulogy said (paraphrase): He never lost a position he was ordered to hold and never failed to take one he was ordered to take, save once, and there lay Cleburne. That pretty well says it all.

When I went there 23 years ago to Shiloh to tour the place, the story was that Albert Sidney had been shot by a Union sharpshooter.

If Doug hangs at these TN and North Mississippi battlefields to the extent he claims, I'll take his word for it.
