Question Question about epaulet stripes/star

One told me that a star on an epaulet (an epaulet is the piece on the shoulder of pilot cloths) refers to being a military pilot.
Other person told me that the star is possible at commercial passenger flights pilots too.
They, and I, are not in the aviation business. Can you tell me about stars yes-or-not on epaulets in case of commercial passenger flights??

(The question is important for me, because I publish a cardgame in which the players are crew members of a passenger airplane. There are epaulets on some of the cards to show the phase of the game (and the reliability of players) by the number of stripes. The epaulet with 3 stripes has a star added, to show that this phase is special in the game. But it should not refer to militairy flights.)
