the Compañero Onganía

Compañero Onganía was a political movement and social organization in Argentina named after General Juan Carlos Onganía, who was a military leader and de facto president from 1966 to 1970. It aimed to promote nationalist and conservative policies, emphasizing national sovereignty, social order, and traditional values. The group served as a rallying point for supporters of Onganía’s authoritarian regime, fostering propaganda, community activities, and political cohesion among those aligned with his government. Essentially, it functioned as a grassroots organization to maintain support for Onganía’s government and its policies during a turbulent period in Argentina's history.
