Involvement in the Camden 28
The Camden 28 were a group of "Catholic left" anti-Vietnam War activists who in 1971 planned and executed a raid on a Camden, New Jersey draft board. Pommersheim, who was appropriately 28 at the time, was a member of this group's anti-Vietnam War activists. Raid resulted in a high-profile trial against the activists that was seen by many as a referendum on the Vietnam War and as an example of successful use of jury nullification.
