}}The '''Fourth Fleet''' comprises of the entirety of the ''Grayson Space Navy'' and is one of the [[List of RMN Numbered Fleets|numbered fleets]] within {{trmn}}.

The '''Grayson Space Navy''' (''abbrev'': '''GSN''') is a [[Grand Alliance]] navy and a branch option for members of {{trmn}}. Commanded by [[Admiral of the Fleet]] Zachary White, the Grayson Space Navy is one of the larger branches of TRMN. The [[Grayson Home Fleet]] from canon is referred to in TRMN as [[Fourth Fleet]] and hosts the majority of GSN chapters in the organization. However, there are Grayson ships serving in various fleets around the world, and Grayson personnel serving in the [[RMN]], [[IAN]], and [[RHN]].


==History==
==History==
The Grayson Space Navy was founded as part of the initial development of (TRMN). At the time the GSN was comprised solely of [[Chapter#Correspondence_Chapter|correspondence chapters]]. Kit Warren became the first [[High Admiral]] and helped found the first correspondence chapters based in Texas and Florida. She also worked with Martyn Griffiths to start the first chapter in Great Britain, the {{gns|Albion|DD-42}}. Eventually, the GSN transitioned away from the correspondence chapter model and is now comprised of traditional chapters all over the world.
