The Jacob Jones served along the East Coast during the next year and conducted war patrols in the same area for a month after the United States' April 1917 entry into the First World War. In May 1917, Jacob Jones, under the command of Lieutenant Commander David Bagley crossed the Atlantic to begin anti-submarine patrols and convoy escort work out of Queenstown, Ireland. She rescued survivors of several torpedoed ships during the next several months. Arriving Queenstown, May 17, she immediately began patrol and convoy escort duty in waters of the United Kingdom. On July 8 she picked up 44 survivors of the British steamship Valetta, the victim of a German U-boat. Two weeks later, while escorting British steamship Dafila, Jacob Jones sighted a periscope; but the steamship was torpedoed before an attack on the submarine could be launched. Once again a rescue ship, Jacob Jones took on board 25 survivors of the stricken Dapfila. On 19 October she picked up 305 survivors of torpedoed British cruiser Orama.
