On Friday morning, U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth posted a video on X announcing that the Navy will rename the USNS Harvey Milk, named after the slain gay rights icon, to the USNS Oscar V. Peters.A defense official confirmed the Navy is preparing to remove the ship’s name at the direction of Navy Secretary John Phelan, following orders from Hegseth. The official said the announcement was deliberately timed for Pride Month and aimed to align with the goals of President Trump and Hegseth including a renewed focus on promoting “warrior culture” within the military.Hegseth stated the decision was meant to depoliticize the process and honor a decorated Navy hero.“I’m pleased to officially announce that the Department of the Navy is renaming the fleet replenishment oiler, formerly known as the USNS Harvey Milk, to the USNS Oscar V. Peterson, Hegseth explained, and continued:We are taking the politics out of ship naming. We’re not renaming the ship to anything political. This is not about political activists, unlike the previous administration.Instead, we’re renaming the ship after a United States Navy Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, as it should be.(more)https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/06/27/we-are-taking-the-politics-out-of-ship-naming-navy-renames-harvey-milk-with-medal-of-honor-recipient/
