He was also on an episode of the Brady Bunch!

And there was also a piece of gear named after him in the Lunar Module. The "McDivitt purse." A small canvas bag used to secure items that might otherwise fly around the cabin.
Fun fact: Neil Armstrong squirreled away the "McDivitt purse" from the Eagle, with a lot of cool spacecraft parts in it. He had it at the bottom of his closet and it was not discovered until he died. I think this was a little joke be played on us all.

The wires were little lights. There are also some other things, like the film camera used to document the first manned landing on the moon.
