...said Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs Thomas O. Enders last week, as he defended the Reagan Administration's support for the beleaguered civilian-military government of El Salvador before three U.S. congressional committees.

Harvard, in Epps' opinion, seeks "a kind of intellectual community,"--the "community of culture" once envisioned by President A.

The largest such U.S.-based operation is a fly-by-night encampment run by Jorge Gonzalez, 50, a Cuban exile who is the head of something called the Inter-American Defense Force. Gonzalez, whose Spanish nickname Bombillo translates as light bulb, boasts that he is training "thousands" of anti-Sandinista Nicaraguans in South Florida. But that claim is more wishfulness than military threat, as TIME Caribbean Bureau Chief William McWhirter discovered on a tour of Gonzalez's training center...
