Pinochet, along with Argentina‘s [[Jorge Rafael Videla]], is considered to be one of the worst of South America's [[Cold War]]-era military dictators, as he presided over a totalitarian regime that perpetrated numerous human rights abuses, [[crimes against humanity]], unlawful executions, the internment of as many as 80,000 people and the torture of tens of thousands. It has been estimated that he has been responsible for the deaths of 3,000 people.

~~Augusto José Ramón Pinochet Ugarte was born~~ in ~~Valparaíso~~, Chile on November 25, 1915~~. He~~ was the son and namesake of Augusto Pinochet Vera ~~(1891–1944), a descendant of an 18th century French Breton immigrant from Lamballe,~~ and Avelina Ugarte Martínez ~~(1895–1986), a woman of Basque heritage whose family had been in Chile since the 17th century~~.

Born in Valparaiso, Chile on November 15, 1915, Pinochet was the son and namesake of Augusto Pinochet Vera and Avelina Ugarte Martínez.

Pinochet went to ~~primary and secondary~~ school at San Rafael Seminary ~~in Valparaíso~~, the Rafael Ariztía Institute ~~in Quillota~~, the French Fathers' School ~~of Valparaíso~~, and then to the Military School in Santiago ~~which he enrolled into in 1931~~. In 1935, he graduated with the rank of ''alférez'' (Second Lieutenant) in the infantry after 4 years of studying geography.

Pinochet went to school at San Rafael Seminary, the Rafael Ariztía Institute, the French Fathers' School, and then to the Military School in Santiago. In 1935, he graduated with the rank of ''alférez'' (Second Lieutenant) in the infantry.

Pinochet was posted to the "Chacabuco" Regiment at Concepción in 1937. He transferred to the "Maipo" Regiment, garrisoned at Valparaso, two years later, with the rank of Sub-Lieutenant. By 1940, he returned to Infantry School and Pinochet later married a woman named Luca Hiriart Rodrguez on January 30, 1943, and the couple had five children: Inés Luca, Mara Verónica, Jacqueline Marie, Augusto Osvaldo, and Marco Antonio.

By 1945, Pinochet was eventually sent to the "Carampangue" Regiment in the northern city of Iquique. He enrolled at the Chilean War Academy three years later, but had to delay his studies because he was assigned to a service mission in the Lota mining zone since he was the youngest officer. Pinochet was eventually admitted into the regular Masonic order in 1948.

Pinochet joined as a member of the regular Masonic Lodge Victoria n°15 of San Bernardo in 1948. He was given the Scottish Rite companion degree, however it is unknown and also unlikely that he ever became a Grand Master.

The following year, he continued his studies at the Chilean War Academy and went to teach at the Military School in 1953 after earning the rank of Officer Chief of Staff. He also served as a teacher's aide at the War Academy, where he taught geography and geopolitics. He was also the editor of the Cien guilas ('One Hundred Eagles') institutional journal. After getting the rank of major, he was transferred to Arica.

He was eventually appointed as professor at the Chilean War Academy during his time there, and he eventually went back to Santiago to begin his new job.

In 1956, Pinochet and a group of officers were picked to arrange a military mission to assist in the establishment of the Ecuadorian War Academy in Quito. He stayed with the mission for four and a half years, studying geopolitics, military geography, and military intelligence as well. He returned to Chile in 1959 and was assigned to the 1st Army Division's General Headquarters at Antofagasta. He was named commander of the "Esmeralda" Regiment the following year. He was eventually promoted to Sub-Director of the War Academy in 1963 as a result of his effectiveness in this post.

He was named Chief of Staff of the 2nd Army Division which was based in Santiago, in 1968, and was elevated to brigadier general and Commander in Chief of the 6th Division, stationed in Iquique, by the end of the year. He was also named Intendent of the Tarapacá Province in his new role as well.

Pinochet was promoted to division general and appointed as General Commander of the Santiago Army Garrison in 1971. Following the death of Edmundo Perez Zujovic by left-wing extremists on June 8, 1971, Allende appointed Pinochet as the sole authority of Santiago province, enforcing a military curfew that was eventually lifted. The curfew was lifted on December 2, 1971, following a series of nonviolent rallies against Allende's economic policies.
