Argentinians: The Revolutionary People's Army calls on all patriots to fulfill their responsibilities, to take their posts in our revolutionary war of the People, in this sec-ond War of Independence. General San Martin and Co-mandante Guevara are our finest examples. The task of the hour is to follow and emulate their thought and ac-tion and that of our past and present heroes and martyrs.
WIN OR DIE FOR ARGENTINA!
