I really like most episodes, but this one was just too far afield for me. Some episodes push the envelope on realism, but the actors & directors generally make up for it. This one was just weird. An 85 yo WW2 Medal of Honor veteran walks into NCIS and admits to killing a buddy during the war (~60 years ago). It was probably the last war US citizens overwhelmingly supported. He had recently lost his wife and felt compelled to confess. The NCIS team decides to spend a lot of manpower, time, and effort to investigate. This seemed incredible to me, but then NCIS digs up the victim and discovers he had stepped on a landmine losing both his legs during a major offensive on Iwo Jima. This episode should have ended here, but they drug it out for another 20-30 minutes with an elaborate "re-enactment" of the events. Love the show, but this episode was not one of their best.
