Pappy's Raiders is about a squad of soldiers that came from different parts of American military bases and met in the Panama jungles for training. The squad was Ranger-trained for a Special Forces Reconnaissance Squad. After the special training, the squad was sent directly to the Republic of Vietnam. There, sixteen men embarked on an adventure that changed their lives forever. The squad was led by an older soldier, a sergeant, who became known as Pappy. After a few firefights, the squad was given the code name, "Pappy's Raiders." This specially trained squad would be sent out into certain parts of the jungle on dangerous recon patrols. The squad became a family. They lived together, fought together, and yes, they cried together. The Raiders were always air assaulted into the jungles from different fire support bases. Bases like that of Ben Cat, MaryAnn, Khe Sanh and Rawhide. If you saw one raider, you would see all the raiders.
