description: "Vice-Admiral Jean-Baptiste Philibert Willaumez was a French Navy officer who served in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. Willaumez joined the French navy at the age of 14, and proved to be a competent sailor. Having risen to the rank of pilot, he started studying navigation, attracting the attention of his superiors and Louis XVI. Willaumez eventually became an officer and served under Antoine Bruni d'Entrecasteaux in his expedition to find the comte de Lapérouse and explore the Indian Ocean and Oceania."
