After featuring in a number of defensive positions, he finally settled into centre-half as replacement for Jim Barrett in 1936.During World War II, Walker served with an infantry battalion who fought from El Alamein to Italy and was several times mentioned in dispatches. He played football for the Army whilst on duty in the Middle East and also took leave to play occasional games for West Ham.
