Valiant's interwar service included assignments with the Atlantic and Mediterranean Fleets. During a Liverpool police strike, the battleship was sent to the city as riots broke out, making her 15-inch guns a visible deterrent during unrest. After further modification and recommissioning, members of her crew participated in the Invergordon Mutiny. A capital ship could become an instrument of domestic authority while its own sailors challenged naval discipline.
