Wow...I wouldn't have expected that, but then again, even in the early days of the 1960s, it wasn't just Americans and Eastern Europeans (adults as well as kids) who got into model rocketry; some people in still other countries partook of it. Also, Argentina and Brazil are two countries in which model rocketry--and even amateur rocketry--became popular with a relatively small but active community (even Lebanon, before their long civil war, had an amateur rocketry community that built and flew many vehicles, back in the 1960s).
