The Home Fleet is the traditional name of the fleet of the Royal Navy that protects the United Kingdom's territorial waters.
During World War I, the Home Fleet was renamed the Grand Fleet. The name Home Fleet was resurrected in 1932, as the new name for the Atlantic Fleet, following the Invergordon Mutiny.
