Walkerdine was commissioned on 4 June 1917.〔(''Flight Archives'', 12 July 1917) http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1917/1917%20-%200714.html?search=Walkerdine Retrieved 8 February 2011.〕 He was appointed a Flying Officer on 3 September 1917.〔(''Flight Archives'', 4 October 1917) http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1917/1917%20-%201032.html?search=Walkerdine Retrieved 8 February 2011.〕 He was assigned to 56 Squadron as a Royal Aircraft Factory SE.5a pilot by late 1917. He scored his first aerial victory on 29 November 1917, when he destroyed a German DFW two-seater reconnaissance plane over Neuvireuil. He would not score again until 15 March 1918, when he drove
an Albatros D.V down out of control north of Bourlon Wood. The next day at noon, he drove another Albatros down out of control. Two days later, on the 18th, he destroyed a pair of Pfalz D.IIIs to become an ace. On 23 March, Walkerdine, Maurice Mealing, Henry John Burden, and three other pilots all claimed a victory apiece by destroying a German reconnaissance plane over Moreuil. Four days later, Walkerdine and fellow ace Louis Jarvis destroyed an Albatros D.V southeast of Bray. Walkerdine was wounded in action on 11 April 1918.〔http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/england/walkerdine2.php Retrieved 8 February 2011.〕
