Synopsis:

At the end of their stint in Viet Nam, Col. John 'Hannibal' Smith and his team were framed for robbing the Bank of Hanoi (which they had done, but under orders), and sent to a US military prison. They escaped and went on the run, pursued first by Col. Lynch and later by Col. Decker. While on the lam, they became heroes for hire, working as good-guy vigilantes around the US or the world. Hannibal was their leader and an expert at disguises. Face was the team's con artist and ladies man. BA (officially 'Bad Attitude') was their mechanic, but also took care of mayhem and intimidation. The final member of the Team, 'Howling Mad' Murdock, was an expert pilot, and a certified lunatic--they broke him out of a mental hospital whenever they needed him for a mission.

During the final days of the Vietnam war, three soldiers were ordered to rob the Bank of Hanoi. However, the man who ordered them was killed and no one else can verify their story. They would be tried and found guilty but after that they escape from the facility where they were being held and went underground in Los Angeles. They then established themselves as Soldiers of Fortune known as The A-Team. Their leader is Colonel John 'Hannibal' Smith who is a master of disguises and has a penchant for danger, who works as an actor, who takes on roles that requires him to wear either heavy make up or a costume. B.A.(Bad Attitude) Baracas has a penchant for striking anyone who rubs him the wrong way and is so afraid of flying that they have to drug to get him on a plane and is also a mechanical genius, and Templeton 'Face Man' Peck, who is so good looking that he can charm anyone into giving them what they need. Amy Allen, a reporter, who hired them, convinced them to let her join them. Amy would be written out and she be replaced by Tawnia Baker, who would leave at the start of the third season. H.M. (Howling Mad) Murdock flew for them when they were in Vietnam but was not with them when they robbed the bank, who is so shell shocked by the war that he is confined to a V.A. psychiatric hospital, and Face has to come up with all sorts of excuses to get him released so that he could fly for them. Initially, they were being hunted down by Colonel Lynch, whose facility they broke out of, he would later be replaced by Colonel Decker, who is more aggressive. A few years later, Decker would be replaced by General Fullbright. Eventually the team would be caught by a man named Stockwell, who runs a covert spy network, and who promised them a pardon if they join his team and carry out some (dangerous) missions. Frankie Santana, a special effects man who worked with Hannibal in the movies also joined them after helping them.

Four Vietnam vets, framed for a crime they didn't commit, help the innocent while on the run from the military.
