On the USN-themed legal drama JAG, a USS Gillcrist (DDG 114) appears in the 2002 episode "The Killer" (Season 8, Episode 10). At the time, there had never been a DDG 114 in the fleet (today there is one, USS Ralph Johnson, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer), and there has never been a USS Gillcrist. The ship on the show is clearly named after RADM Gillcrist as his official portrait (indeed the same photo shown on this webpage) prominently appears on the wall of the ship's wardroom - a common custom on ships named for individuals. As the real Paul Gillcrist wrote two JAG episodes (season 3's "Ghost Ship" and season 5's "True Callings"), the fictional destroyer was likely named after him as an inside joke by the show's production staff.
