After leaving the Army, and learning of the loss of his family to a car accident, went to Japan to train with his LRRP team-mate Thomas Arashikage in the ways of ninjitsu. Becoming a ninja, he left the dojo when his mentor, the Hard Master was killed apparently by Thomas (known as Storm Shadow).

Spent an undetermined amount of time in seclusion in a mountain cabin, until SSG Lonzo Wilkinson (known as Stalker),another member of the LRRP team, recruited him to join GI Joe. On a rescue mission in the Middle East, when his Huey transport helicopter malfunctioned, a fuel explosion caused his face to be horribly scarred and his vocal chords to be irreparably damaged, precluding the ability to speak. Snake-Eyes now wears a mask to cover the scars,usually a black mask when wearing tactical clothing and a latex facsimile of his unscarred face while in class A's.
