HMS Holmes (K581) was a Royal Navy Captain-class frigate, originally a Buckley-class destroyer escort intended for the United States Navy. Before she was finished in 1944, she was transferred to the Royal Navy under the terms of Lend-Lease, and was in commission from 1944 to 1945, seeing service during World War II.
