In 1941 Art entered the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, becoming an officer and was immediately assigned to a Coast Guard Cutter on convoy duty in the North Atlantic, eventually rising to the position of Executive Officer. At war's end he joined the Judge Advocate General's Office as a Coast Guard Hearing Officer serving the Portland and San Francisco areas. He retired from the Coast Guard with the rank of Commander after 22 years of service. For the past several years he lived in Wickenburg where he played golf nearly every day. Part of every summer he would spend in Duluth and Schultz Lake. Preceding him in death was his sister June Petersen; brothers Howard, John, Philip, William, Thomas, and Richard.
