Plot Synopsis

BROTHERS IN ARMS is a one-hour reality series that follows military vets Rocco Vargas and Eli Cuevas, the owners of Banditos Armory in the historic town of Ogden, UT, as they take their expertise and passion and become the best one-stop shop for all things military. From fixing and testing a Cold War Russian tank, one of only a few in America, to solving the mystery of an unidentified Japanese WW2 contraption that Allied troops had never seen before - and didn't know how to fire. There's little that the team at Banditos won't do to investigate, restore, build, and test the most innovative, iconic machines in military history. No challenge or question is too big for Vargas and Cuevas, whether they're working with military historians and veterans, opening their door to inquiries from avid customers, or even seeking answers to burning questions of their own. In the series opener, "Cold War Tank; Mystery WWII Weapon," Rocco and Eli restore a Cold War Tank that's been inoperable for over 30 years. They also create their own version of a Blunderbuss and help a customer identify a mysterious Japanese explosive device from WWII.
