The military of China is quaking in its shoes.

Harvey Milk got a less than honorable discharge from the Navy in 1955. Let’s name a Navy ship after him?

The ship is named after a pervert, so it is appropriate that it is christened by another pervert.

Progress or regress? As far as I am concerned, the opposite of progress is Congress.

Who would want to serve on the USNS Harvey Milk?! Harvey Milk was a gay civic politician who was shot to death. And the Navy names a ship after him?

I’m glad The Village People didn’t do their flag dance on an aircraft carrier.

The U.S. Navy is so woke! Does this make you feel warm and fuzzy?

They all seem to forget Mayor Moscone who was also murdered…..and a navy vet.

Milk was a navy vet too.

Both were murdered by Dan White, who was very anti-gun.

Couldn't have been all that anti-gun.

What do you expect from a ship full of seamen?

Did it immediately take one in the rear, and sink?

I remember the movie ‘Execution of Justice’ with Tim Daly as Dan White. Can’t find the movie anywhere now I suspect because it cast Dan White in a sympathetic position. He was absolutely tormented by the freaks/system in San Francisco because he was straight and against homosexuality. That’s about all I remember about it but I do remember believing that he had been driven to what he did.

Christened? I don’t think so. The ship is doomed.

I am 100% positive that there are far more worthy Navy veterans that could have been honored. But no….. gotta endorse a fruit cake. 🤬

Consider the sailors that must serve aboard the Harvey Milk from the Captain to the last crewman. Everyone will ask how the ship and crew are doing. They are going to have to work very hard to uphold standards and be the best ship in the Navy to offset the stigma of such a name.
