    The document summarizes the origins and early structure of Montoneros, a leftist guerrilla group in Argentina, in 3 paragraphs. It describes how from 1968-1970, a group of nationalists called "Protomonteros" rebelled against US influence and adopted nationalist symbols, identifying with the Third World. This group was centered in Buenos Aires and Córdoba around key figures. It attacked banks and police posts to obtain money and arms. Montoneros then adopted a secretive cellular structure named after fallen members. It established departments for logistics, intelligence, operations planning, and propaganda. By May 1970 it had 12 members from student and working class backgrounds.
