Biography
Nanci LaMusga was a Catholic Worker organizer and peace activist. She entered Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha during the Feast of the Holy Innocents peace witness on December 28, 1981. Military authorities detained her for several hours, issued a barring letter, and released her that day. LaMusga later helped found the Bread and Roses Catholic Worker house in Olympia, Washington, where she remained involved in community service and spiritual practice.
Initial Offutt military detention
The original January17,1982 Nuclear Resister,printed3, supplies December28 military custody and same-day release for NanciLaMusga. It does not establish a later prosecution or prison sentence. No independently identified reusable portrait has been established; modern professional listings are not used to assign an unbridged photograph.
Separate 1983 episode and contemporary limits
The Elma report individually names this person among six arrested June 6, 1983 while trying to stop a Trident missile-motor train in Washington. They were released pending July 25–26 trial dates; no initial custody duration or later physical admission is specified. Paul Libby and Petrina Walker, farther along the route, were explicitly not arrested and are not assigned the six defendants’ custody. These facts are separate from the existing December 1981 Offutt detention; future trial and sentence possibilities do not establish actual jail time.
