Story

Quiet communities and middle-class neighborhoods dot the American landscape. Soccer moms shop for geraniums and potting soil at the local building supply. Husbands and fathers make the trek to work every day, then close it out with a quiet night of Sports Center. Children are tucked into beds with kisses on their foreheads. They are safe and secure. Maybe.

The reality is that the American landscape, and indeed the world, is a dark and sinister place. Terror is as close as our welcome mats. Members of street gangs join the US military with the intention of acquiring sophisticated military training for use on the streets. Foreign militaries, hell-bent on destroying our country are sending a steady flow of operatives over our Northern and Southern boarders. Daily, pirates attack large, ocean going shipping vessels.

The terrorist threat is very real; more dangerous than an asteroid heading for earth or the worst case of global warming! Our terrorist enemies are the true doomsday scenario and it will happen, very soon.

Like a viper ready to strike, a band of men and women with highly specialized tactical military experience are ready for hire by governments, corporations and wealthy individuals to protect their assets and their lives.

Are they bodyguards? Sure! If your idea of bodyguards is a tough-as-nails, military strike force with automatic weapons, rocket launchers and their own private air force.

The American Commando “Family” is an explosive group of human military hardware: ex-Marines, Army Rangers, an ex-Formula 1 driver, military fugitive recovery agent, a Mr. Universe, a female runway model, and a professional psychic – ready to take down anything that comes between you and your freedom.

American Commandos digs deep into the lives of an elite, for-hire fighting force that lives on the edge and brings you back breathless with every episode. – The American Commandos: true protection against your doomsday scenario.

Program Structure

Each episode is packed with high energy, life and death reality of the American Commandos operating under the stress of relationships at work and at home. Whether in the office or on the field of battle this band-of-brothers goes under fire by choice and arises victorious by necessity.

It is intended that each episode be a dynamic blend of action, carefully blended with useful information woven within the textures of the Sterling Hydra “family.”

  The American Commandos dive into mission training and preparation, like knights sharpening their swords for battle they constantly engaging in tactical training exercises, bringing their fighting skills to the highest level.
• Bridging Content
  The lighter and heavier side of each of these warriors is that they have personal lives – running a karaoke club or competing in sports at a professional level – these lives get personal and dramatic as the team lives extreme lives at home and at war.
• The Mission
  Cloaked in black, ready to repel from a jet black helicopter hovering over a terrorist cell or ready to strike while guarding millions of dollars of cargo from Somali pirates, the American Commandos live life on the bleeding edge, risking their lives for a paycheck and providing lethal force in scenarios where few dare to go. In each episode’s climax, a bullet may not stop your heart, but the action will.
• Conclusion / Debreifing

As each mission comes to a close, they account for their gains and mourn their losses while anticipating another day of battle. – This is the life they have chosen and as the last wisp of daylight fades, their brotherhood grows stronger until the eternal day.
