This article analyzes the figure of the “fallen soldier” in the “war against subversion” in the seventies. I will study two cases of guerrilla attacks on Army units in 1975: the attack by Montoneros on the N° 29 Infantry Regiment of Formosa in October and the People's Revolutionary Army on the Arsenals Battalion N° 601 in Monte Chingolo, Province of Buenos Aires, in December. The soldiers killed became symbols that condensed a series of values traditionally associated with the military imaginary: honor, comradeship and courage. These deaths were processed in the light of the figure of sacrifice: the debt of the violently killed comrades in arms had to be paid off through active involvement in the “anti-subversive struggle”. I propose to explore funeral rituals as spaces where the Army deployed the “psychological action” on its own troop. I will focus on the analysis in press and military publications of the speeches made by different actors (members of the Armed Forces, “comrades of promotion”, police and political authorities, as well as religious leaders). I believe that state terrorism also implied a strong emotional commitment forged around the revenge of the deaths of these “comrades in arms”. |

Este artículo analiza la figura del “soldado caído” en la llamada “guerra contra la subversión” en los años setenta. Estudiaré dos casos de ataques guerrilleros a unidades del Ejército en 1975: el ataque de Montoneros al Regimiento de Infantería de Monte N° 29 de Formosa en octubre y el del Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo al Batallón de Arsenales N° 601 en Monte Chingolo, Provincia de Buenos Aires, en diciembre. Los militares asesinados se constituyeron en símbolos que condensaron una serie de valores asociados tradicionalmente al imaginario castrense: honor, camaradería y coraje. Las muertes se procesaron a la luz de la figura del sacrificio: la deuda de los compañeros de armas muertos violentamente debía saldarse a través del involucramiento activo en la “lucha antisubversiva”. Me propongo explorar los rituales funerarios como espacios donde el arma terrestre desplegó la “acción psicológica” sobre su propia tropa. Me enfocaré en el análisis en la prensa y las publicaciones militares de los discursos de diferentes actores (miembros de las Fuerzas Armadas, “camaradas de promoción”, autoridades policiales y políticas, así como líderes religiosos). Considero que el terrorismo de Estado también implicó un fuerte compromiso emocional forjado alrededor de la venganza de las muertes de los “compañeros de armas”. vEste artigo analisa a figura do "soldado caído" na chamada "guerra contra a subversão" dos anos 1970. Estudarei dois casos de ataques guerrilheiros a unidades do Exército em 1975: o ataque de Montoneros ao Regimento de Infantaria Monte Chingolo nº 29 em Formosa em outubro e o Exército Revolucionário do Povo contra o Batalhão de Arsenais nº 601 em Monte Chingolo, Província de Buenos Aires, em dezembro. Os soldados assassinados tornaram-se símbolos que condensaram uma série de valores tradicionalmente associados ao imaginário militar: honra, camaradagem e coragem. As mortes foram processadas à luz da figura do sacrifício: a dívida dos camaradas de armas violentamente assassinados teve que ser paga por meio de um envolvimento ativo na "luta anti-subversiva". Proponho explorar os rituais fúnebres como espaços onde a arma terrestre desdobra a "ação psicológica" em sua própria tropa. Vou me concentrar na análise na imprensa e nas publicações militares dos discursos de diferentes atores (membros das Forças Armadas, “camaradas de promoção”, autoridades policiais e políticas, bem como líderes religiosos). Acredito que o terrorismo de Estado também implicou um forte compromisso emocional forjado em torno da vingança pela morte de "camaradas de armas".
