In 1918, the U.S. Navy acquired Jerry Briggs under a free lease from her owner, Mrs. Myra Briggs, for use as a section patrol boat during World War I. She never received a section patrol (SP) number, but she was commissioned as USS Jerry Briggs on 17 August 1918.

Jerry Briggs operated out of Saint Helena oil station in the South Atlantic Ocean for the rest of World War I and into 1919. She was decommissioned on 3 April 1919 returned to Briggs the same day.
