Army Commander in Chief's speech on the 160th anniversary of the army
Description:
Photocopy of a document included with Cornicelli's diary kept during his service as Secretary-Aide to Army Commander in Chief, General Lanusse. Lanusse addresses: the responsibility of the army and its members in the revolutionary process; the socio-economic attitude of the army; and its position towards subversion. He makes mention of the responsibility that dealing with weapons entails and assures that the army would use them for the best interest of the nation. Discusses the history of the army in Argentina and links it to history of Latin America. Refers to subversion and condemns extremist attitudes coming from the "right or the left."
