Rules. At the beginning of her tenure with NCIS, during the Season 3 episode, Switch (episode) Gibbs informed Ziva David that there were approximately fifty rules that were his job to teach her. Some years later, Gibbs added the "51" Rule to the tin he kept the rules in while according to Tony, seven of the rules directly concern lawyers, ...
Gibbs broke Rule #1 (Never let suspects stay together) in "Ships in the Night" in order to get a confession. This also occurred in Caught on Tape (episode) but the suspects turned out to be innocent. Additionally, Gibbs broke the rule in A Man Walks into a Bar (episode) but the suspects were only guilty of covering up suicide, not murder.
Gibbs also admits that rule number 10 is the one that he has had the most "trouble with" in "Obsession".
The only rule of Shannon's personal code that is quoted is either her first or third: "Never date a lumberjack.". Years later, after their wedding, Gibbs began writing his rules down, keeping them in a small tin inside his home which was shown in the Season 7 finale episode, Rule Fifty-One (episode).
The rule is also a direct reference to John Wayne's catch phrase in She Wore A Yellow Ribbon: "Never apologize, mister, it's a sign of weakness.".
Although there are presumably at least 91 rules by the time of " Rule 91 " in Season 18, not all of even the ones so far mentioned are in [ list of Gibbs' Rules ]. Currently, the list only includes rules up to Rule 69.

Right at the end, McGee and Gibbs were fly-fishing when their plane arrived. McGee loaded up, but Gibbs never moved. It took McGee a while to get the picture, but Gibbs finally came out and said it. He wasn’t going back – to NCIS or even DC. He was going to stay in Alaska.
Silver Star, Purple Heart, Navy Meritorious Civilian Service Award. Leroy Jethro Gibbs is a fictional character of the CBS TV series NCIS, portrayed by Mark Harmon. He is a former U.S. Marine Corps Scout Sniper turned special agent who commands a team for the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Gibbs is the most accomplished marksman on ...
In the season 4 episode "Singled Out", McGee asks Gibbs how long he has been a special agent, to which Gibbs responds, "16 years ". This contradicts Gibbs' statement in the JAG season 8 episode "Ice Queen", when in response to Harmon Rabb 's question, "How long have you been doing this, Gibbs?", Gibbs responds, "19 years".
His team members occasionally slap one another in this way, but none of them apply it to Gibbs for fear of retribution. "Hiatus" (season 4) reveals that Gibbs acquired the habit from Mike Franks, who occasionally did it to Gibbs when he was in charge of the team. The only people Gibbs does not slap in his work circle are his superiors, including NCIS Directors Jenny Shepard and Leon Vance; Abby Sciuto, whom he regards like a daughter; and Dr. Donald Mallard, a longtime respected friend. On one occasion (Season 3's "Family Secrets"), Gibbs slaps himself for covering up evidence of an organ transplant.
After Franks retired, Gibbs rose to become head of his own Major Case Response Team . Before the time in which NCIS is set, Gibbs was described to have traveled extensively on operations, particularly in Eastern Europe.
He served on tours of duty in Panama ( Operation Just Cause) and with the 1st Battalion 1st Marines in the Persian Gulf ( Operation Desert Storm ). In the season 6 episode " Deliverance ", it is revealed that he was also deployed to Colombia on a classified mission. Not long after returning from the Gulf, he retired from the Marine Corps with the rank of Gunnery Sergeant (though in the JAG episode "Ice Queen" he is stated to be a reservist) and joined the Naval Investigative Service (as the Naval Criminal Investigative Service was then called) in August 1991. As a junior agent, Gibbs was mentored by Mike Franks, and the two became close friends; Franks continued calling him "Probie" even after retirement. After Franks retired, Gibbs rose to become head of his own Major Case Response Team. Before the time in which NCIS is set, Gibbs was described to have traveled extensively on operations, particularly in Eastern Europe.
Gibbs has taken strong displeasure at being rewarded for his services in the military because he has a deep sense of regret attached to his career and prefers to be commended privately. Much of it has to do with the deaths of Shannon and Kelly. Moreover, Gibbs holds himself responsible for the estrangement with his former mother-in-law in taking her daughter and granddaughter away from her, due to his absence leaving them vulnerable and indirectly causing their murder. This left his mother-in-law in so much grief that it led to the dissolution of her own marriage. Eventually, he found peace with most of his regrets in the 200th episode of the series "Life Before His Eyes", where Gibbs learned that even if he had been present in their lives and thus prevented the sequence of events that ended in their deaths from ever coming to be, the path his life would have taken would have instead led to his own demise.
Gibbs is known by his first name, Leroy, to family and people in his hometown (as well as his ex-wife Diane), whereas at work he is known as Gibbs, Jethro, or simply "Boss". Gibbs ' mother, Ann, is introduced in " Life Before His Eyes ", the 200th episode. She was a redhead, like all of Gibbs' wives.
Gibbs dunks his cell phone into his cup of coffee.
McCallum was born on September 19, 1933, in Glasgow, England, which makes his 88 years old.
Rumor has it, series star Mark Harmon was “ ready to leave ” his role as Leroy Jethro Gibbs in the mothership series when his contract expires at the end of season 18.
As for Gary Cole ’s FBI Special Agent Alden Parker, he turned out not to be such a bad guy. Even though his boss FBI Deputy Director Wayne Sweeney ( Erik Passoja) issued a warrant for Gibbs’ arrest, Parker set Gibbs free and promised not to testify against him for stealing his car with the suspect in it. It turned out that Parker called Fornell ( Joe Spano) who gave him the real goods on Gibbs.
Gibbs: I’m not going back, Tim.
Gibbs: There’s nothing to worry about, Duck.
Parker got fired for not following orders, but as Vance said, “Sometimes there are more important things than following orders.”
VIEWERS were left in shock when Mark Harmon left the lead role in NCIS.
However, Gary plays FBI Special Agent Alden Park, and it was announced that he would never be a replacement for Harmon, but be a support to the team with their investigation.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Harmon signed a deal to continue with NCIS for its 19th season, but that was only to return in a limited capacity.
