When Walter was born in 1920, Japan had invaded Korea and China while the world stood by in disbelief that Japan would ever attack the United States. By the time Walter entered high school, he knew war was imminent with both Japan and Germany. Having already been admitted to Harvard Law School, instead, Walter stepped forward and said “take me, I want to serve my country.”
