Brian Dietzen shared some exciting news on Tuesday, and huge congratulations are in order! Taking to Twitter, the actor – who plays Dr Jimmy Palmer on NCIS – celebrated the record-breaking response to the crossover event which saw teams from the Washington DC, Hawaii and LA branches come together for a high-stakes investigation.
