Afterward, she sailed for San Pedro Bay in the Philippines, where she arrived on 5 July. She was then released from the U.S. 3rd Fleet, which had been so designated upon Admiral Halsey's assumption of command on 27 May, and reassigned to Task Force 94 for convoy escort duty. She returned to Ulithi on 13 July; and, from then until 16 September, she protected the supply echelons on the Ulithi-Okinawa shuttle. "Silverstein" had one break in the convoy routine between 2 and 5 September when she sailed to Guam and screened back.
