July 28, 1982

Four Argentine generals who were in the Falkland Islands during the conflict with Britain have been provisionally relieved of their commands, the Army commander in chief, Cristino Nicolaides, said.

''All the armies of the world reevaluate the quality of their men and the duties they perform after a defeat, and we are doing just that,'' he told reporters, adding that the changes were not punishment.
