It would make an awesome venue for gay circuit parties, a sort of floating dance club that could travel from city to city :clap:

Is it true, or an urban myth, that the US navy considered using this as a recruitment song?

Gay men squeeze themselves by the thousands onto ferries every summer weekend to get to Fire Island. They spend hours driving to Provincetown, Key West and Palm Springs from the closest large city. Never underestimate the lengths to which a queen will go to get to a decent cosmo, some good music, and thousands of shirtless men.

This video was shot as a recruiting ad.

The ship, sailors and uniforms are real (although the semaphore is done wrong lol)

"In the Navy" is a 1979 hit song (U.S. #3, U.K. #2) by Village People. The United States Navy considered using the song in a recruiting advertising campaign on television and radio. They contacted manager Henri Belolo who gave the rights for free on the condition that the Navy help them shoot the music video. Less than a month later, Village People arrived at the San Diego Naval base. The Navy provided them with a warship (USS Reasoner (FF-1063)), several aircraft, and the crew of the ship (with the stipulation that the crew wouldn't dance). The Navy later canceled the campaign after protests erupted over using taxpayer money for a music video of a controversial group.[1]

It was the last top 10 hit for the group in the United States.

...but the US Navy loves it!
