When he was 20 he rescued the president and used this to get himself transferred to the Peregrine Falcon Squad (PF Squad) where he became best friends with Marco Rossi and upon learning Marco was to go and fight in the Great War (a fictional battle in the future) he volunteered and fought and survived the war alongside his friend leading to his promotion to Captain, the rank he still holds as of Metal Slug 6.
A fun guy, Tarma is an expert motorcycle engineer and builds custom bikes for fun in his spare time, he had intended to retire and set up a shop, but relented to his superiors pleas and stayed in the army.
