In Reacher Season 2, those linked to Jack Reacher’s military history encounter danger as members of the 110th MP Special Investigations Unit are found deceased. Who among them belongs to the unit’s ranks?

When we first meet Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson), he’s a force to be reckoned with thanks to his imposing stature alone. Reacher’s combat proficiency soon revealed another reason to tread lightly around him: Lee Child’s book character was once a major in the US Army’s military police. 

He now roams the United States as a drifter, however, his investigation skills still come in handy. Season 1 focused on Reacher solving his brother’s murder, while Season 2 sees him tackle another part of his past.

Informed by his longtime friend and teammate Francis Neagley that the 110th MP Special Investigations Unit is in trouble, Reacher swings into action. But who are they and why is Reacher so hellbent on revenge?

Reacher Season 2: The 110th MP Special Investigations Unit explained

The 110th MP Special Investigations Unit was Jack Reacher’s former army unit. They were a special group of military investigators he handpicked to solve some of the army’s most difficult cases.

After depicting a carjacking in present day Arkansas, Reacher Season 2’s first episode goes back in time several years to Rock Creek, Virginia. Here, Jack meets one of his recruits, Calvin Franz, who was chosen after Reacher saw him diffuse a fight between soldiers over a cookie.

Franz and the rest of the recruits are confused as to why Reacher brought in soldiers with no police experience. He explains their cases are special and need special investigators instead of normal MPs. In Reacher Season 2, the 110th MP Special Investigations Unit consists of nine investigators.

Fans learn more about the 110th and what led to their disbandment. The team takes over a drug-related case and is given thanks by their superior above Reacher. But along the journey to finding clues, the team makes a devastating realization. Members of the army are transporting drugs across state lines to avoid detection and get pay cuts.

The 110th report their findings but are shut down by their superior. Reacher’s told that it cannot become public that the commanding general was unaware of drug transportation within the very military. The team is told to let it go and brush it under the rug. But Reacher and the team defy orders for justice. They ambush the soldiers responsible and find drugs hidden within the wheels of their army vehicles.

Despite doing what’s right, their superior disbands the 110th for going against military orders. They are all kicked out.

Who are the members of Reacher Season 2’s 110th MP Special Investigations Unit?

Besides Reacher, the team included Sergeant Francis Neagley, Major Calvin Franz, Captain David O’Donnell, Major Tony Swan, Major Karla Dixon, Captain Stan Lowrey, Major Jorge Sanchez, and Major Manuel Orozco. Living by the motto, “You do not mess with the Special Investigators,” the team became a family.
