I knew one Walt who, to different people, was reportedly the youngest RN captain "of a Corvette" supporting the D-Day landings as well as being an RAF transport aircraft captain on the Berlin Air Lift. In addition he was, amongst a list of other impressive post-nominals we didn't bother to check out, a Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers -who by some unfortunate oversight had never heard of him.
What was true was that at the time he was the Group Managing Director of a well known set of UK listed companies.
