Johnnie Walker reportedly died at age 77 in Butner Prison, NC. His son Michael Walker was arrested for spying for his father aboard the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier in Port Haifa, Israel. Michael Walker speaking in this video was released from prison a free man. Johnnie Walker's houseboat named JAWS - the initials in his name as a Sr. - John Anthony Walker Sr. - JAWS the shark movie - JAWS the charachter with metal teeth in the 007 movies. Johnnie Walker loved his 007 movies. He drove to D.C. to the Soviet Embassy and volunteered to spy against the U.S. Navy for Money and greed. He worked aboard submarines. He was worried about an upcoming Navy Secret Clearance evaluation so he left the Navy and became a Private Detective in Tidewater VA. Johnny Walker continued to spy for the Soviet Union. As a detective he worked missing children's cases as a cover to look like a hero to the community. After arrested Johnnie Walker's JAWS houseboat was seized and neighbors watched the FBI dig up his back yard. He was an asshole stalker and should have been shot for treason against America.
I served in the Navy in early 1970's. There was talk of leakage of secrets back then of the material that wasn't sent to Vietnam. The shot down aircraft had the value the Soviets wanted, but the secret stuff afterward had no conflict excuse. Walker's son had the access to the aviation secrets on the Nimitz. We did complain that security to the Navy Exchange (PX in Army terms) was more strict than access to the building on my squadron's base where I did service the electronics in such aircraft. We had to get a security clearance to enter that building. Only the night watch at the front door checked ID and badges. A lot of us entered through the back door. No questions asked. Narrator Richard Anderson was the boss of the main characters in the Million Dollar Man and Woman series as well as many other acting gigs in his career. He was 91.
I was onboard the USS Nimitz when the kid was there. We were in Haifa, Israel in 1985 when he was taken off the ship, just prior to the story breaking.
25:27 *Let's Keep It REAL: YOU TOOK YOURSELF FOR A RIDE, buddy. The only "heart breaking thing" is that YOU ALL GOT CAUGHT!!!! You sold out your ship mates' safety as well as your OWN - AND YOUR COUNTRY - PERIOD!!*
He was a little creep that had no sense of shame or regard for the uniform he wore or his fellow seamen yet for the damage that he did he received a relativity short sentence but justice works in strange ways sometimes he died the month he was to be released.
I was in Subic in 1985 when the reports came out the NTCC CMS CUSTODIAN Asked for me and another RM2 to help in emergency destruction we did that for over 8-10 hours. when I went back to sea in june 87 I was sent to KW-46 SCHOOL. you had to use key tapes to the 46.
12:42 I heard a bit on that on the PDF version of “All Hands” which the USN magazine had a story. According to the article Michael Walker stole his first document from VF-102 “Diamondbacks” in late 1983. As it turned out before his transfer to U.S.S Nimitz in early 1984 the Tomcat squadron was missing up to six classified dossiers with nobody in NAS Oceana figuring out how they just disappeared.
“If there was a war, we would have won “ 😂😂😂 Hardly Comrade….. the nukes would have dropped in a heartbeat the minute one superpower had even a slight chance of gaining the upper hand. For someone so confident in his assessments he should have known that. 🤷♂️
You do realize nukes are basically banned since Hiroshima. We may have them but taboo to use or threatened because it would decimate the rest of the planets health
The Soviets got a lot of propaganda mileage out of what Walker did, but they knew it wasn't enough bravado to get them through the Fulda Gap, so they eventually STFU. Best decision they could have made. Going broke and crashing their economy was the second.
The book "Breaking The Ring" by John Barron is a great resource for a "quick read" about Walker's and Whitworth's betrayal. It's not all "Tom Clancy'd up" (not that there's anything wrong with that), but just a good description about money-hungry iD10Ts who got caught too late and the damage they did. That said, I tip my hat almost daily to the people at the FBI, the NSA and the naval and civilian policymakers who reacted quickly and worked tirelessly to repair the damage caused by those two .
Michael Walker is made of more than 99% of the USA military cowards because now hes been to prison also and understands things real well. He is now a free man. Its wonderful. I hope hes happy. You hear about the Russian hackers reading treasury emails? Huh. That make you angry enough to kill?
It's Oscar Goldman from the 6 Million Dollar Man! Just remember kids the USSR is just as dead in spite of the Walkers. Itelligence is importanat. But it's not what nations stand or fall on.
@@raymondyee2008 Really? How did Snowden or Winner do it then? Unfortunately it does not matter how good your security is if you have hired a traitor. This is a problem that is getting worse, since the security community continues to grow and the population is increasingly disillusioned. A great analysis of the problem is by Laura Heath, sees the issue as too much reliance on COMSEC, not that this is misplaced, but that it is an attempt to compensate for our increasing vulnerability to HUMINT. On the other hand, it seems to me, our COMSEC is also increasingly compromised by the Chinese, although they don't publicly release their findings. So we are bleeding on all fronts.
This also makes me think of the rat who leaked the Supreme Court brief, a source which had to be from inside the Court, the person no doubt a disillusioned young American who wishes to backstab their employers.
Neither Ames nor Hansen nor Howard nor Walker had access to what Tump had, nor what he had in his possession. Intelligence community doctrine considers any compromised material to be in the possession of the enemy, Russia. The mitigating factor is that Tump was likely loaded up with chicken feed on purpose.

I work in OP Dept. OI Div. and we all thought Mike was a cool little skateboarder dude. After he was arrested we knew then how he got the Corvette.

So am I. Leave my mommas ex husband alone before Putin sees you mocking the truth.
“The files are IN the forehead”?
@@reboundrides8132 lol
Almost choked on my food when I heard 17 years of spying. God damn!
yeah, exactly 😳 ... damn shame
Same with Hanson. Couple of decades before he was caught too. Why don't they execute spies anymore?!
John Walker only lasted about a week in population at Lewisburg. too many death threats. His son Michael did around 10 there

One question, why are any of them still breathing?
Whitworth is. He's at federal California prison.

I was in the navy when they got busted. WNOR's morning show ran a sitcom bit about it. The theme song was to the melody of the Addams Family theme
Ah the true story behind “Family of Spies” the movie.
the book is great-John Walker Family of Spies by Pete Early
We are grateful for The United States Navy.
I was a Submariner 81-90 and was required to watch this.
18:56 still applies even in the civilian work sector especially here with the Personal Data Protection Act.
The death penalty is too cheap IMHO.

When I went back to sea in 87 you could even get near a safe with out putting in 2 safe combos.
You didn't lose anything Walker... except your freedom. You knew exactly what you were doing.
Traitor working for your father. Because of money.
Did duty watch a couple of times with him on the Niagara Falls.
Did you two ever get freaky?
Wow. Too bad the son felt he wasn’t fairly compensated by his father for his espionage.

They either made a deal to tell all they know, or we weren't at war.

I don't think you understood the story of this spy ring or it's significance. This could literally have cost us a war, our freedoms, our way of life.
NO THANKS TO THEM, AND SOMETIMES, YES IT DOES.
UNFORGIVEN
gross incompetence on the part of the navy
watched it. Didn't like it but it was worth watching.
Very sloppy naval security.
Sure was back in the 1960s and 1970s. Now virtually impossible to pull this off again.
