Johnston's Army
Johnston's Army refers to the military forces led by General Joseph E. Johnston during the American Civil War. This army was primarily active in the Confederate States and played a significant role in various battles, including the Battle of Bull Run and the Atlanta Campaign.

The army faced numerous challenges, including supply shortages and the overwhelming numbers of Union forces.
