US Embassy document detailing the formation of the AAA under the BINCI of the Colombian National Army

The Alianza Americana Anticomunista (AAA, pronounced triple-A; "American Anticommunist Alliance") was a paramilitary far-right group mainly operating in Colombia between 1978 and 1979.

Contemporary accusations and declassified U.S. Embassy documents have linked the creation and operation of this group to members of a Colombian National Army battalion employing the Triple A name as a label.[1][2]
