DEPARTMENT OF NAVY 2023 LGBTQI+ PRIDE MONTH
CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED// ROUTINE R 021755Z JUN 23 MID600053036343U FM SECNAV WASHINGTON DC TO ALNAV INFO SECNAV WASHINGTON DC CNO WASHINGTON DC CMC WASHINGTON DC BT UNCLAS ALNAV 048/23 MSGID/GENADMIN/SECNAV WASHINGTON DC/-/JUN// SUBJ/DEPARTMENT OF NAVY 2023 LGBTQI+ PRIDE MONTH// RMKS/1. The Department of the Navy (DON) joins the Nation in celebrating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+) Pride Month during the month of June. This year's widely discussed theme, "Peace, Love, Revolution," reflects the wave of societal transformation through which the LGBTQI+ community first found freedom and inherent pride, which they LGBTQI+ have further developed in the decades since. It is through their efforts that we can further realize a culture across the DON where everyone is treated with dignity, respect, support, and equal opportunity. Members of the DON's LGBTQI+ community have served from every base, ship, shipyard, and facility. Pride Month holds great importance to this community and their allies as it commemorates the Stonewall Riots of 1969 as a foundation for LGBTQI+ individuals to discover and celebrate their inherent pride. In reflecting upon the difficulties of the past, I also want to highlight Lieutenant Junior Grade (LTJG) Harvey Milk, who regrettably had to mask his true identity before our beloved Navy forced him out through an "other than honorable" discharge. LTJG Milk went on to become one of the first openly gay candidates elected to public office, before a former colleague assassinated him in 1978. I will never forget sharing my understanding of the details of LTJG Milk's service with his nephew, Mr. Stuart Milk, and personally witnessing the christening of the oiler USNS HARVEY MILK on 6 November 2021. I am proud to know that HARVEY MILK joins the ranks of present and future USNSs SOJOURNER TRUTH, EARL WARREN, ROBERT F. KENNEDY, LUCY STONE, and JOHN LEWIS as beacons in every port of call for the diversity, equity, and inclusion that we value as a Department and Nation. Today, LGBTQI+ Sailors, Marines, civilians, and contractors work alongside their colleagues to develop creative solutions to today's complex naval challenges, and they stand in defense of our Nation to execute our mission and defeat our adversaries. Together, we are molding the future of the DON and realizing the limitless possibilities of a collaborative, diverse, and inclusive workforce where everyone can live as their true self and defend our Nation from extremism and any threat. I encourage you to learn more about the cultural heritage and contributions of the LGBTQI+ community to our Nation at https://www.history.navy.mil/browse-by-topic/diversity/lgbt.html. 2.
