Walter Cowan
Admiral Sir Walter Henry Cowan, 1st Baronet, KCB, DSO & Bar, MVO (11 June 1871 – 14 February 1956), known as Tich Cowan, was a British Royal Navy admiral who saw service in both World War I and World War II; in the latter he was one of the oldest British servicemen on active duty.
==Early days==
Cowan was born in Crickhowell, Brecknockshire, the son of an officer in the Royal Welch Fusiliers. After his father's retirement from the Army, the family settled in Alveston, Warwickshire, where his father became a justice of the peace.
Cowan never went to school, but entered the Royal Navy in 1884〔(Liddell Hart Centre for Military Archives )〕 at the training ship, HMS ''Britannia'', a classmate to fellow future admiral David Beatty.
