DANFS History:
Wiseman was decommissioned at San Diego on 31 May 1946. She was inactivated there on 31 January 1947.
Recommissioned in the autumn of 1950, after the onset of the Korean War that June, Wiseman - under the command of Lt. Comdr. Jay W. Land - rushed to
Korea, reaching the port of Mason, near the mouth of the Naktong River, at the western anchor-point of the former beachhead at Pusan. As she had done at Manila in 1945, Wiseman now
supplied electricity to a city unable to generate its own.
Wiseman received 6 battle stars for her Korean War service.
