Carlos, who served as a deputy to the national congress, was, like the rest of his family, supportive of the Radical Civil Union, an Argentine political reform party formed in the 1890s.

His native country won first place in the épée, fleuret and sabre events in the host city of Rio de Janeiro.

[3] He continued to practice fencing until 1926 when, after winning a national championship,[4] he put the sport on hold to complete his law degree.

Camet, who was a substitute, sat out of the matches against Norway and Spain, before being called to replace Héctor Lucchetti against Belgium.

[5] Camet, therefore, won the bronze medal in the team foil category, along with his teammates, despite what he considered to be adverse rulings from the jurors.

[5] After the Olympics, Camet traveled to Navarreux in France to visit his old family home, where his father had studied both academics and fencing.

While the victory at Amsterdam was considered a milestone in Argentine athletics at the time,[1][2][4] Camet, as a substitute was often forgotten as a contributor by his contemporaries in the fencing community such as Oscar Viñas and Eugenio Peni, despite being a legitimate and official medal winner.

[1] At the time of his death, on July 22, 2007, at the age of 102, he was believed to be the world's oldest living Olympic athlete, although that distinction actually belonged to Erna Sondheim.
