It is not USS Harvey Milk. It is USNS Harvey Milk T-AO-206.
She is manned by a civil service crew and commanded by a Coast Guard Licensed Master. The ship carries no weapons. She does carry a 12-15 man Navy detachment consisting of radiomen and signalmen headed by a Lt. or Ltjg. with a SCPO or CPO as #2.

Okay.
All I knew was a naval ship had been named for Milk. I considered that an insult.
