In July 1945, she was selected for training in anticipation of service with the British Pacific Fleet but the posting never eventuated due to the end of the Second World War.

Faulkner, the chief of naval staff, Corbin assisted in the demobilisation of Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) personnel for much of 1946.

[1] Following the mutiny at Devonport Naval Base in April 1947, where several RNZN personnel left in protest at their working conditions, the WRNZNS was reestablished to help fill in the gap in manpower.

[1] Wrens could assume some of the onshore duties performed by RNZN personnel, freeing the men up for service at sea.

She faced some initial difficulties; Wrens were recruited on six-month contracts, since the RNZN believed the manpower shortage would only be temporary.

Wrens were mainly employed in two locations, at the Philomel shore establishment and the Navy Office in Wellington, performing administration duties.

Corbin retained an interest in the WRNZNS, being involved in the New Zealand Ex-Wrens Association and was present at the last parade of the organisation before it was dissolved in 1977; women were now able to serve in the RNZN.
