Boarding Junks and Other Operations
In February 1968 Phoebe took part in a combined U.S.-Japanese mine exercise. Most of the rest of the year she operated out of Sasebo, with a "Market Time" patrol in September and October, during which she boarded 201 junks and a U.S.-Korean mine exercise in November. As of late 1969 Phoebe still operated out of Sasebo, Japan.
