From the completion of her shakedown through June 1960 ''Denebola'' alternated eight tours of duty with the U.S. 6th Fleet in the Mediterranean with local operations out of Norfolk, Virginia. In addition she participated in NATO exercises in 1957 and 1958 and carried stores to the Caribbean. She served as plane guard for President Dwight D. Eisenhower's plane and on his return from the NATO conference at Paris, in 1957, and during her 1958 Mediterranean tour she replenished ships patrolling off Beirut in the aftermath of the Lebanon crisis. She was also in the Mediterranean during the June,1967 Arab-Israeli "Six-Day War," and replenished U.S. Navy ships on standby alert during that conflict.〔personal experience〕
