Introduction

Stars Earn Stripes is a reality television programme that aired for one season on NBC beginning 13 August 2012.

A group of celebrities experience the day to day operations of the military.

Outline

The season started with the stars and the operatives meeting in a clearing where General Clark assigned the teams.

The first mission was called Amphibious Assault where the cast members would be dropped from a helicopter. Most of the missions were completed with two teams of a star and an operative to form a squad.

• The first squad was Dean Cain’s and Laila Ali’s teams with them completing the mission in around 13:20.
• The second squad consisting of Todd Palin, Dolvett Quince, and their operatives started the mission, but Quince could not swim adequately enough to the raft.
  • The Rescue Team picked Quince up and Todd completed the mission with the help of the two operatives in a time of 20:54.
• The third squad of Nick and Eve completed their mission in a time around 10:02.
• The fourth squad of Picabo Street and Terry Crews started the mission, but Crews experienced similar swimming difficulties as Quince did.
  • Street finished the mission in a time of approximately of 17:07.

Back at Mission Control, General Clark announced that Nick and Eve had the best time. General Clark also announced that the two stars that failed to complete the mission would compete in the elimination shootout (instead of the normal slowest squad). Dolvett Quince and Terry Crews competed in the shootout with Quince being eliminated. Quince earned a small amount for the ‘Got Your Six’ charity.
