Combat
Missions: Four-person teams, composed of current and former
members of the military, engage in tests of physical endurance,
discipline and strategy.
Synopsis:
Rudy Boesch, the crusty retired Navy SEAL from the first "Survivor"
show, will host Combat Missions. The press release states
that the cast will be "made up of existing and former
members of elite tactical units -- such as the Navy SEALS,
Green Berets, Marine Recon, Army Rangers, Delta Force, Air
Force P.J.'s, SWAT and other specialty law enforcement"
They will "live on a secret military base, and compete
in events that test the limits of physical ability, tactical
strategy, and mental discipline in a series of staged military-themed
and styled missions." The prize money of $400,000 will
be divided among the teams. This new show was developed by
Mark Brunett, the producer of "Survivor."
