== Charactah Account ==
Walker is a captain of the US Army's Delta Force who is tasked with leading his squad into the now-devastated Dubai on a recon mission to find survivors. Upon finding dead American soldiers and fending off armed survivors, however, Walker chooses to go against orders and travel further into the city with his team to investigate. Upon discovering the 33rd having declared martial law and committing acts of brutality to keep refugees in line, Walker resolves to find Konrad for answers and save the refugees.
However, as he and his team is faced with increasingly horrifying situations and begin to mentally deteriorate, Walker is faced with the consequences of his actions and his damaged mentality as the team descends further and further into violence and madness.

== Trivia ==
* Walker's life was saved by Konrad during a mission in Kabul. This heavily influences Walker's feelings toward Konrad.
* In nearly all cutscenes in the game, Walker is shown using an M4A1. If Walker has 2 other guns, he will still be depicted with the M4A1 in cutscenes, which will change back into the equipped weapon once the cutscene ends. The only exceptions are in the scene before Delta rescues Rick Gould or two civilians, in which Walker uses a Scout Tactical, and the epilogue, where he uses an AA-12.
* Walker was originally going to appear much younger, with longer hair and a headband. His appearance however was changed at some point during development.
* As Walker degrades both physically and mentally throughout the course of the game, his language will shift from reserved and professional, to emotional and angry. His executions of enemies will also become more brutal.
* Walt Williams, the game's lead writer, personally believes that the helicopter crash during the sandstorm actually killed Walker and that the rest of the game is his Purgatory.
* Walker receives his burns from the explosion of the tanker.
* According to Walt Williams' Significant Zero, the name for Walker came from the fact he would be doing a lot of walking in the game.
* First name Martin may be a reference to Martin Sheen, the actor who portrayed Willard, the protagonist in Apocalypse Now.
