Fighting the foul weather common in the North Atlantic, Camp's alertness against submarine attack and diligence were rewarded by no losses in any of the convoys she accompanied.

Camp cleared Charleston, South Carolina, 9 July 1945 for the Pacific, and after serving as a training ship at Pearl Harbor, proceeded to Eniwetok for occupation duty.

She supervised the evacuation of the Japanese garrison from Mili, then took on air-sea rescue duties off Kwajalein until 4 November, when she sailed for home, arriving at New York 10 December.

She reported to Newport, Rhode Island as part of ComCorTron 16, 19 February 1957 and operated from that port to Argentia, Newfoundland and into the North Atlantic through 1962.

On 7 August 1967, Camp was notified that the Viet Cong were overrunning the Republic of Vietnam Navy Naval Junk Base 16 on the Trà Khúc River.

For the next three nights, Camp provided star shell illumination to the base as it braced itself against further attack until its defenders had adequately rebuilt their defenses.

Controlling the helicopters which hovered over the fantail hoisting aboard the injured was a delicate operation as the wounded were evacuated to a U.S. Army hospital in Quảng Ngai.

After setting up her patrol barrier in the Formosa Straits, Camp found it necessary to head north at flank speed to avoid Typhoon Carla.

Running into 40-foot (12 m) seas and 70 kn (81 mph; 130 km/h) winds which remained unabated for several days, Camp suffered total destruction of the forward gun shield and loss of the fire control radar system.

Camp gave gunfire support when needed, provided "mothership" services to River Patrol craft and assisted Naval Operations when burial at sea or escort details were requested of her.

Formally transferred on 5 April 1976, former Tran Hung Dao was commissioned into the Philippine Navy as frigate RPS Rajah Lakandula (PS-4) on 27 July 1976.
