              PART II      INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 20.         INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

  Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") provides that a
corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to
be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other
than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that
the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation,
or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in
connection with the action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith
and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was
unlawful.  Section 145 further provides that a corporation similarly may
indemnify the person serving in that capacity who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor,
against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection
with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if the person acted in good
faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall
be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which the person shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which the action or suit was
brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of
liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly
and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses which the Court of
Chancery or other court shall deem proper.  The provisions regarding
indemnification and advancement of expenses under Section 145 of the DGCL shall
not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw,
agreement, stockholders' or disinterested directors' vote or otherwise.

  Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to include in its
certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting the personal
liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that the provision
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director:  (i) for any breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law; (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL (relating to
unlawful payment of dividends and unlawful stock purchase and redemption); or
(iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

  As permitted by Section 145(e) of the DGCL, our Third Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation and our Amended and Restated Laws provide that we
shall indemnify our directors and officers, and, to the extent our board at any
time authorizes, incorporators, employees or agents, as such, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, and that expenses reasonably incurred by any
officer or director or other person entitled to indemnification in connection
with a threatened or actual action or proceeding shall be advanced or promptly
reimbursed by us in advance of the final disposition of the action or
proceeding, provided that, if required to do so under the DGCL, we receive an
undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director or other person to repay
the amount if and to the extent that it is ultimately determined by final
judicial decision from which there is no further right of appeal that the
officer or director or other person is not entitled to indemnification.  Our
Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the rights
are not exclusive.

     the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-
     effective amendment) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
     fundamental change in the information described in the registration
     statement.  In spite of the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume
     of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
     would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low
     or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the
     form of prospectus filed with the SEC under Rule 424(b) if , in the
     aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20%
     change in the maximum aggregate offering price described in the
     "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
     statement; and

          (iii)  To include any material information with respect to the plan of
     distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
     material change to the information in the registration.

          (b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered, and the offering
of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering.

          (c) To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by
reference into the prospectus under Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form,
within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated
documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means.  This includes
information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the
registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

          (d) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information
concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved, that was not
the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became
effective.

          (e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant under the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for
indemnification against the liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
persons of the registrant in the successful defense of any action suit or
proceeding) is asserted by the director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether the
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of the
issue.

TeleCorp Communications, Inc.

Suite 800
Arlington, Virginia 22201

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as special counsel to you in connection with the issuance,
authentication and delivery of $575.0 million principal amount at maturity of
11-5/8% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes Due 2009 (the "Exchange Notes") of
TeleCorp PCS, Inc. (the "Company") together with the guarantee thereof (the
"Subsidiary Guarantee" and collectively with the Exchange Notes, the
"Securities") by TeleCorp Communications, Inc. (the "Subsidiary Guarantor"), in
exchange for a like amount of 11-5/8% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes Due
2009 (the "Old Notes") of the Company, as contemplated by the Prospectus (the
"Prospectus") included as part of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the
"Registration Statement") with respect to the Exchange Notes, which was filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act").

     For the purposes of this opinion, we have examined the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus contained therein, the indenture dated as of April
23, 1999 (the "Indenture") between the Company and Bankers Trust Company, as
Trustee (the "Trustee"), the form of the Exchange Notes, the resolutions of the
Board of Directors of the Company dated as of April 19, 1999 and April 22, 1999
and of the Subsidiary Guarantor dated as of April 20, 1999, the authentication
order delivered to you by the Company (the "Authentication Order") and the
certificate executed by officers of the Company and delivered to you (the
"Officers' Certificate").  We have also examined and relied upon the
representations and warranties as to factual matters contained in such documents
and upon originals or copies of such corporate records and other documents and
have reviewed such questions of law as we considered necessary or appropriate
for the purposes of this opinion.  In our examination, we have assumed the
authenticity of all documents submitted

to us as originals, the conformity to the original documents of all documents
submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies, the genuineness of all
signatures on documents reviewed by us and the legal capacity of natural
persons. As to any facts material to this opinion which we did not independently
establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations and
certificates of the Company and its officers and other representatives and of
public officials.

     Members of this firm are admitted to the Bar of the State of New York and
we express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with or effect of
the law of any jurisdiction other than the federal laws of the United States,
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and any interpretive
caselaw and regulations thereunder and the laws of the State of New York.

     Based on such examination and review, we are of the opinion that:

          1.   The issuance of the Exchange Notes has been duly authorized by
               the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantee has been duly authorized
               by the Subsidiary Guarantor;

          2.   When (i) authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the
               provisions of the Indenture, (ii) duly executed by the Company,
               and (iii) issued and delivered in exchange for Old Notes in
               accordance with the terms of the exchange offer,  the Exchange
               Notes will be legally issued and will constitute the valid and
               legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against
               the Company in accordance with their terms; and

          3.   When the Exchange Notes are (i) authenticated by the Trustee in
               accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, (ii) duly
               executed by the Company, and (iii) issued and delivered in
               exchange for Old Notes in accordance with the terms of the
               exchange offer, the Subsidiary Guarantee will constitute the
               valid and legally binding obligation of the Subsidiary Guarantor,
               enforceable against the Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with
               its terms.

     The opinions contained herein are subject in each case to the following
qualifications:

          A.   enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
               reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other
               similar laws now or hereafter existing affecting creditors'
               rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless
               of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law); and

          B.   we express no opinion as to the enforceability of any rights to
               contribution or indemnification provided for in the Securities
               which are violative of the public policy underlying any law, rule
               or regulation (including any federal or state securities law,
               rule or regulation).

     To the extent that the obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantor under the Indenture may be dependent upon the following matters, we
have assumed for purposes of this opinion that (i) the Trustee is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization and is duly qualified to engage in the activities
contemplated by the Indenture, (ii) the Indenture has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Trustee, (iii) the Trustee is in compliance, generally and
with respect to acting as Trustee, under the Indenture, with all applicable laws
and regulations, and (iv) the Trustee has the requisite organizational and legal
power and authority to perform its obligations under the Indenture.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to us under the caption "Legal
Matters" in the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement.  In
giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act and the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

     This opinion is limited to the matters expressly set forth herein and no
opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly so stated.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we do not undertake any
liability or responsibility to inform you of any change in circumstances
occurring, or additional information becoming available to us, after the date
hereof which might alter the opinions contained herein.

                                             Very truly yours,

                                             /s/ McDermott, Will & Emery
