J. Walker enlisted in the Coldstream Guards on 8 November 1933 and served with the 3rd Battalion in Palestine. Transferred to the reserve in 1937, he returned for active service during the Second World War. Having seen action at Dunkirk, he would likely have shared in the actions at 'The Dyle' and at the Escault Canal. Walker was discharged on 5 August 1940, likely on account of his actions during the summer.
