In 1944, the government of the self-ploclaimed «June Revolution» installed a Military Zone in the basin of the Gulf San Jorge (Argentina). Its purpose was to militarize central Patagonia, as its vast and perpetually disputed oil wealth meant this territory needed to be safeguarded. The Military Government (GM) caused a series of important transformations; the analysis of the work environment in Comodoro Rivadavia shows one of these transformations. This paper will show that, during the MG, workers claimed the values of oil nationalism promoted by General Enrique Mosconi in Fiscal Oil Fields (YPF) between 1922 and 1930.

Palabras clave : memory; oil; workers; Patagonia; militarization.
