The minesweeper remained in the shipyard for alterations during most of 1954. Late in the year, she got underway for shakedown training at Key West, Fla. She then reported to her home port, Charleston, S.C., for more training. In February 1955, her designation was changed to MSF^422. Aggressive took part in a large-scale mine warfare exercise held off the southeast coast of the United States. Upon completing the exercise, she returned to Charleston to prepare for an overseas deployment.
