Season 2, Episode 7
9/10
wonderful Charles Durning

Warning: Spoilers
This was such a moving episode. The reactions of the 3 "team" agents were priceless and moving. I agree with other reviewers that the scenes with the the Medal of Honor uncovered, the interaction with the Japanese veteran and the dance were highlights for me, too. To expand a bit on Mr. Durning's war record, do check his IMDb bio. He saw some horrendous action in the European Theatre and survived the massacre at the Battle of the Bulge. Re the dance...you'll also see that early in his career he was a dance instructor. If you saw him in Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, you'll know that he can really sing and dance. The only reason I gave this a 9 instead of a 10 is that the final episode of M*A*S*H used s similar scenario. Unfortunately, I bet this sort of thing does happen in war situations.

Bravo! Mr. Durning and thank you for your service in WWII and all of the pleasure that you've brought through your acting and Bravo! to NCIS for a wonderful episode.
