Confederate commander seriously wounded in fair oaks campaign?

Joseph E. Johnston. He was very seriously wounded, and hospitalised for many months. They tried to put him back in uniform before he was fully recovered, but he had to go back to hospital. However, he was eventually fit to resume command, and was posted to Jackson, Missisisippi in Spring '63 to confront Grant at Vicksburg. Here his orders to the garrison commander (to get out and save his army) conflicted with direct appeals from President Davis to hold the river-port at al costs. One important consequence of Johnston's wounding and hospitalisation was the appointment of Robert E. Lee to replace him.
