"Albert Sidney Johnston was one of the most famous generals in the American Civil War. Few would know that he had anything to do with the Temecula Valley, unless they happened to notice his name on Temecula's "They Passed this Way Monument" in Old Town Temecula. Gen. Johnston eventually became second in command of Confederate forces, but at the outset of the Civil War, Johnston, a career U.S. Army officer, had just been appointed commander of the Department of the Pacific that included the states along the Pacific coast."
