After deciding not to harbor the Navy battleship, USS Iowa, as a museum last year it seems San Francisco is now reconsidering bringing the Iowa to it's city as a gay tourist attraction. It seems the change of heart is do the desire to be able to tell the story of the gay, lesbian and transgendered troops in the military. And oh, what a story it would be...
Can't you just picture it now...a floating battleship museum with a full vaudevillian style musical revue complete with a lavish peacock style costumes and fancy attire? I can only imagine the interior decorating possibilities of color coordinating with the beautiful shades of gray adorned all over the USS Iowa.
Or wait, I have a better idea...lets just torpedo it now and preserve the grace and dignity of the men who served on the Iowa.
