Pleasant Side was a small NCR farming and mining town on the frontier border of NCR territory, founded by a group of farmers, merchants, settlers and miners led by Bernard Dillinger, the town prospered, and was relatively well defended thanks to the presence of NCR soldiers. The town was, however, raided by a small band of 'metal-heads', later confirmed as Enclave scouts. The town was discovered not long afterwards, by explorers from Vault 14, whom offered assistance to the Town, helping them to prosper and improve, in return allowing the explorers to use the old US Military Communications Station to track down the Enclave.
