Walt Kerman is the KSP representative of Public Relations. He is the only Kerbal depicted as having stubble. When using the Mission Builder Tool that was added with the Making History expansion pack, he is identified as "PR Kerman". PR is likely meant to represent the term public relations, which is the department he represents in the Administration Building. On the 0.25 update cover, it appears as if Walt only has a fraction of a tooth in his mouth (as Kerbals only have two teeth). This is most likely the result of a public relations "accident". Walt's name may be a reference to Walter Cronkite, a broadcaster who worked for CBS news and was known for broadcasting and commentating on the Apollo launches. His hazmat suit as well as his name may be an unintentional reference to Walter White, the protagonist of Breaking Bad.
