Fleet Air Arm Supermarine Walrus sea rescue

The Supermarine Walrus (originally known as the Supermarine Seagull V) was a British single-engine amphibious biplane reconnaissance aircraft designed by R. J. Mitchell and first flown in 1933. Designed as a fleet spotter to be catapult launched from cruisers or battleships, the Walrus was later employed in other roles, notably as a rescue aircraft for aircrew in the sea.

My father had them aboard various battleships in W.W.2 40-44.

The lack of corny music is appreciated.
