TV Show Plot For For Love And Honor

For Love and Honor was based loosely on the 80's movie An Officer and a Gentleman. The series featured two men in charge who were at odds with each other; Captain Wiecek (Gary Grubbs,) who is tough on the 88th airborne, and the fair but tough Sergeant Allard (Cliff Potts.)

Other characters on the series included: Master Sergeant Bell (Yaphet Kotto), a combat tested Vietnam vet; Captain Engel (Shelley Smith), the division's medic and love interest to Sergeant Allard; Corporal Pavlik (Rachel Ticotin), who lives in a barracks full of male soldiers; the womanizer named Scammer (Pete Kowanko); aspiring boxer Duke (played by Keenan Ivory Wayans); mid-western farm boy Utah (Tony Becker); and Lucas (Eddie Velez), the hot-blooded Hispanic soldier.

The TV show For Love and Honor aired only eleven episodes on NBC from 1983 to 1984. The series was quickly cancelled by the network after failing to compete against the likes of Falcon Crest.

I was an extra in this Pilot and TV Series. I was one of the Marines from Marine Barracks Seal Beach. I would like to know how I could get a copy of this show. I would like for my kids and grandkids to see it. I had a lot of fun working on this with all the actors.
