After shakedown training during the summer of 1944, the large infantry landing craft joined the Pacific Fleet. She operated in various rear areas of the [[Pacific Ocean]] through the end of [[World War II]] and, after Japan capitulated in mid-August 1945, continued similar activity into the summer of 1946. On 19 July of that year, LCIL-652 was placed out of commission and was berthed with the Columbia River Group of the Pacific Reserve Fleet. While inactive during the remainder of her Navy career, she was redesignated LSIL-652 on 28 February 1949. Late in October 1950, the ship was nominated for conversion to an underwater mine locator ship. Accordingly, she was named Accentor and redesignated AMCU-15 on 7 March 1952. In May 1952, she was reassigned from the Columbia River Group to the Bremerton Group in preparation for her reconditioning. | After shakedown training during the summer of 1944, the large infantry landing craft joined the Pacific Fleet.
