Iron Guard (Argentina)

The Iron Guard (Spanish: Guardia de Hierro; abbreviated as GH) was an Argentine political organisation[8] with its headquarters in Buenos Aires.

[1] It was founded in 1962 by Alejandro "Gallego" Álvarez and Héctor Tristán, both members of the Peronist resistance.

Left-wing members like Roberto Grabois, a socialist, would later join the Iron Guard.

Other notable members were Amelia Podetti (a philosopher and writer), Julio Bárbaro (a politician) and Roberto Roitman (an economist).

[9] After the death of Juan Perón, the group was dissolved, although a "sector" led by Álvarez continued its political activities.
