From the Shipmate, April 1997. A USNavy Alumni Association publication......
"ARTHUR GREENVILLE McINTYRE, 41: A product Bessemer AL, Commander McIntyre (1917-97) came out of the Fleet NAPS to enter the Naval Academy in the summer of 1937 with the Class of '41 Graduating slightly early because of the war in Europe, Art joined his first ship, Portland, in Pearl Harbor 9 months before the 7 December supprise attack. After early serface action in the South Pacific, Mac was among the first to volunteer for submarine duty when the urgent call went out for replacements for the heavy sub losses being experienced. Faulty torpedoes made sitting ducks of submerines whose targets did'nt sink after being hit because the torpedoes failed to detonate or passed under them due to errant depth mechanisms. Mac's first boat was the Grenadier, which he joined in Australia late 1942 after abbreviated sub school. On the night of 20 April 1943 while patrolling the dangerous confined waters of Malaca Strait, Grenadier was attacked on the surface by aircraft just prior to submergeing for an attack on two targets she had been tracking. While passing 120 feet a violent explosion shook the boat causing loss of power, lights, some internal communication and serious hull leaks. Coming to rest on the bottom at 270 feet, Grenadier's crew fought a losing battle to control the damage and another electrical fire caused by shorts and water leakage. Finally able to surface the next night with only slow speed available on one screw, she jury rigged a sail in an effort to make headway toward an island where the crew could make it ashore after scuttling the helpless ship. At dawn on the 22 April an enemy merchantman with one escort were sighting approaching while a plane spotted Grenadier on the surface and attacked. Excellant marksmanship by the sub's two 20mm and two 50 calibre gunners hit the aircraft whose bomb missed 200 yards abeam. The aircraft failed to make it safely back to base, but Grenadier was forced to make the decision to scuttle ship just before arrival of the enemy ships. All crew members were picked up and sent to prison camp in Japan where beaten mercilessly during their almost three year period of confinement, four of them not surviving the deprivation and cruel treatment. After repatriation Mac resumed his Naval career and commanded Lionfish and Submerine School in New London (Mac also served at the WWII war criminal trials in Tokyo, during the Korean War, at Mediterranean Sea locations & on diplomatic assignment in Peru SA.) before retireing to successful civilian employment for another 20 years Mac's injuries while a POW plagued him the rest of his life and contributed directly to his ultimate death in a nurseing home in San Diego. Suffering greatly from assorted ailments and paralyzed below the waist, Art McIntyre slipped into eternal peace on 16 January 1997. He had bravely fought the human enemy and the clinical one for most of his adult life. He leaves Peg, his devoted wife of 43 years. Private services and burial were conducted in North San Diego County."
