This photograph shows Captain Walker with a sextant. His naval skills were formidable and although he could appear brusque to outsiders, his crews thought very highly indeed of him. He earned their respect and loyalty.
The picture below shows him using a loud hailer to give orders to other ships in his group. Image Courtesy of Imperial War Museum |
