On 12 January 1946, Aclwmawi got underway for the west coast of the [[United States]]. She made port calls at Eniwetok, Kwajalein, Johnston Island, and Pearl Harbor. The tug finally made San Francisco on 3 March. After spending one month in port there, Achomawi departed California in early April to return to the western Pacific to support Operation "Crossroads," which involved atomic testing at Bikini Atoll. The tug carried out various towing assignments between Pearl Harbor, Bikini, Eniwetok, and Kwajalein. She was released from this operation in August, left Hawaii on 14 September, and arrived in [[San Francisco Bay]] on 2 October.

Early in December, Achomawi received orders to proceed to the Panama Canal Zone. She touched at Balboa on 29 December and picked up ARD-6 for towing to Jacksonville, Fla. The tug then transited the canal and reached Jacksonville on 4 January 1947. After delivering her tow, she set a course for New Orleans, La. Upon her arrival on 9 January, the ship entered preinactivation availability. Achomawi completed this in early March and got underway on the 9th for Orange, Tex. She was decommissioned there on 10 June 1947 and was laid up at Orange. Her name was struck from the Navy list on 1 September 1962. The vessel was then transferred to the Maritime Administration and was laid up at Mobile, Ala.<ref>Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships [http://www.history.navy.mil/danfs/a2-list.htm]</ref>
