The Union commander was General Irvin McDowell. Union General Patterson was assigned to prevent Southern troops from using a rail link to Bull Run. He did not do so, and thus was not at the battle site.
The Confederate commander was Joseph E. Johnston, who conceded some authority to P.G.T. Beauregard on account of the latter's familiarity with the terrain.
