U.S. Secretary of the Navy to Appear on NCIS

The real U.S. Secretary of the Navy will make a guest appearance on an upcoming episode of NCIS.

On the November 24th episode, “Child’s Play”, Secretary Ray Mabus will make a special appearance as an NCIS agent.

In the episode, Gibbs (Mark Harmon) and the team put their Thanksgiving plans on hold to  investigate the death of a Marine which leads them into the life of a 12-year-old prodigy (Madeline Carroll), who may be the killer’s next target. Lisa Sheridan (Invasion) and Francis Capra (Veronica Mars) also guest-star. Although Mabus won’t be playing himself, NCIS has featured a secretary of the Navy character on the show before. Jude Ciccolella (24) portrayed the secretary in three episodes last season.
