Biography
Bob Callagy described his imprisonment following an antiwar trespass at the Oakland Army Terminal in a signed letter published in the September 1965 Catholic Worker. Writing from Alameda County Jail at Santa Rita, California, he initially described a thirty-day term; a later note says he was released after seventeen days.
In the September1965 Catholic Worker, the signed “Making Hay” letter from Bob Callagy is headed Alameda County Jail, Santa Rita, California, July10,1965. He describes confinement following a trespass at the Oakland Army Terminal. An appended later note reports that he was released after seventeen days. The initially stated thirty-day term is not treated as completed service. July10 is a dated observation of confinement, not an established admission day; the exact admission and release dates remain unknown. The historical jail name is retained in the source account without linking it to a later replacement facility.
