The USS Grenadier was a Tambor-class fleet submarine of the US Navy during WWII. The Tambor-class consisted of 12 ships with seven being lost during the war, the highest loss rate for any US submarine class in service during the war. Included in that was Grenadier, which was scuttled after being hit by Japanese bombs. All the crew survived the sinking, but only 72 of the 76 officers and men of Grenadier survived the Japanese prison camp conditions.
