Completing her duties with the "Ranger" group soon thereafter, "Wabash" put into Guam, Mariana Islands, and prepared to provision the incoming task group. The replenishment ship subsequently conducted local operations in the Philippines in September and in Japanese waters in October—operating out of Sasebo—before visiting Pusan, Korea. Returning to Sasebo on 25 October, the ship headed for Yokosuka soon thereafter for repairs and upkeep prior to concluding her WestPac deployment. During this, her third WestPac tour, "Wabash" had steamed over 35,000 miles, conducted 100 underway replenishments, and had been at sea nearly 65 percent of the time. Departing Japanese waters on 10 November, "Wabash" arrived at her home port one day before Thanksgiving.
