Brooke Shields has signed up for the Air Force — or at least the Air Force as it's portrayed on "Army Wives."
"Pretty Baby" star Shields will join the cast of the Lifetime series for its seventh season, the network said Thursday.

Shields will play Katherine "Kat" Young, a brash, brilliant Air Force colonel and crack C-17 pilot who clashes with Gen. Michael Holden (Brian McNamara) shortly after arriving at Joint Base Marshall Bring.
But after Young and Holden's Air Force-Army rivalry gets underway, Holden discovers that Young has a tragic past — and more in common with him than he first thought.
