John
Walker
John Walker is an IUEC Elevator Constructor and has been a
certified diver since 1978. His occupation is what
helps him pursue his true passion, exploring our world,
underwater. His exploration is diverse, extending
from beaches and lakes to shipwrecks and caves. John
was an underwater educator from 1984 to 2004, specializing
in mix gas diving and overhead environments such as caves
and shipwrecks. He had taught through accredited
agencies such as NAUI, IANTD and GUE. He is an
accomplished cave cartographer and wreck explorer, diving
hundreds of shipwrecks such as the USS Monitor, USS Wilkes
Barre, UB88 as well as many aircraft casualties. But
nothing intrigues him more than finding the skeletal
remains of ancient human and prehistoric animals or Mayan
pottery thousands of feet inside of a water filled cave.
Since John's retirement from teaching scuba, there is
a better chance of finding him behind a video camera
underwater than a chalk board in the class room.
