The Borinqueneers were a kickass, all-Hispanic, mostly Puerto Rican, unit of the US Army. These servicemen and women served honorably and with distinction during World War I, World War II, and the Korean War. 

Part One covers the formation of the unit, the infamous SS Odenwald incident, and just a few of the contributions of these passionate, loyal, outstanding Boricuas during WWI.

La primera parte cubre la formación de la unidad, el famoso incidente del SS Odenwald, y solo algunas de las muchas contribuciones de estos apasionados, leales y sobresalientes boricuas durante la Primera Guerra Mundial.
