====Battle-Captain====
As Captain of the 7th Great Company, Garro was entitled to the honorific honourific title "[[Battle-Captain]]", a tradition of the Legion dating back to the [[Unification Wars]] on Terra, when an officer of the XIV Legion distinguished himself in front of the [[Emperor]], who bestowed the title on him as reward. Garro was proud to bear the title and approved of upholding the traditions of the legion, including the use of a housecarl, [[Kaleb Arin]], to act as his [[equerry]].{{fn|1a}} Despite the pride at he took in bearing these honours and occasionally having the favour of his [[Primarch]] [[Mortarion]], Garro did not believe in looking for glory or further honour in battle, and did not go out of his way to impress. He believed above all in simply doing his duty to the Emperor.{{fn|1b}}

A veteran of many campaigns, Garro had great experience of both enemy forces and his fellow Legions. He served alongside the [[Luna Wolves]] under Captain [[Garviel Loken]] in the Krypt campaign against [[Orks]]{{fn|1c}} and the [[Emperor's Children]] under Captain [[Saul Tarvitz]] in the Preaxior campaign. He and Tarvitz were sworn honour-brothers after saving each other's lives, carving small eagle emblems on the vambraces of their armour in such a way that, were they to clasp hands, the eagles would meet.{{fn|1d}}
