USS Adroit (AM-82/PC-1586) was an Adroit-class minesweeper acquired by the United States Navy for the task of removing mines that had been placed in the water to prevent the safe passage of ships.

On 2 July, the minesweeper headed back to Nouméa and operated there until the 26th, escorting ships entering and leaving the harbor.

On the last day of July, Adroit arrived back at Guadalcanal and assumed station on a patrol screen.

The minesweeper got underway again on the 22nd, headed for New Caledonia, made intermediate stops at Espiritu Santo and Efate, and reached Nouméa on 10 September.

PC-1586 reached Hawaiian waters on 15 August and remained in port for approximately two weeks before sailing on to the west coast.
