Getting underway again on 17 June, "Healy"s carrier task force launched repeated strikes on Guam, steamed into the Carolines, and commenced strikes against the Palaus 25 July. Continuing to cruise with Task Force 58, "Healy" screened the carriers during strikes on the Bonin and Volcano Islands on 4–5 August before returning to Eniwetok on 11 August 1944. Sailing again on 28 August, the group hit the Bonins, Palaus, and various targets in the Philippines until 17 September. "Healy" was detached that date and joined a carrier task group for direct support of the Peleliu invasion, the next step on the island road to Japan.
