Continuity mistake: After watching Brice's interview on TV, all the guys sit down at the table to eat dinner, and there is one jar of mustard on the table. When Roy smears mustard on his bun, Chet motions for the mustard with his eyes and Roy slides it over to him to use, but in the next few shots the open jar of mustard is either in front of Roy or Chet, depending on the angle of the shot. The milk container keeps switching places as well.
Continuity mistake: While Brackett and Morton are working on the boy who was shot with a pellet gun, when Morton is about to intubate the boy, we see that the O2 mask has been removed from his face and lying behind the boy's head, but when Morton hooks up the hose to the ventilator, we see the O2 mask and its elastic are still around the boy's neck. Then when Brackett says, "Prep him," the mask is gone.
Continuity mistake: When Johnny and Roy are in the staff lounge waiting for Dr. Morton, Johnny's holding the newspaper's sports page, and in the page's close-up, there is a large picture of Brice centered between two columns of articles. However, when Johnny's talking to Roy and Dr. Morton, that page is entirely different even though he hasn't turned the page.

Correct, it was J. Pat O'Malley...he also played the grandfather with his grandson when their rocket exploded, and also played "Old Bill" in the episode with Ann Prentiss, where Gage saves the little girl from the burning tree house, and her mother falls in love with him.
