After a shakedown cruise along the Gulf Coast, PC-1228 underwent anti-submarine warfare training out of Miami during June before being sent to the Eastern Sea Frontier for duty 28 June. During the next several months the ship conducted anti-submarine patrols and escorted ships along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. On 26 November PC-1228 was ordered to steam to the Canal Zone, where it arrived in Coco Solo on 5 December. The ship patrolled the coastal waters of the Panama Canal Zone for the remainder of World War II. With the end of the war, PC-1228 returned to the United States. The ship was sent into reserve on 24 May 1946 and was decommissioned at Green Cove Springs, Florida on 19 July 1946. On 15 February 1956, while still berthed with the Atlantic Reserve Fleet, the ship was named Munising. The aging vessel was struck from the navy register on 5 September 1957 and breaking up on 1 July 1958 to the Boston Metals Company of Baltimore, Maryland. (en) |
