My name is Barry Burton and I was a member of S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics And Rescue Service) and the backup man for the S.T.A.R.S. Alpha team. I was in charge of maintaining and supplying weapons for my fellow S.T.A.R.S. members.

My favorite weapon is the .44 Magnum Colt Anaconda. I like the buddy system going on between us. I had my good friend Robert Kendo ask his brother, Joe, to modify most of S.T.A.R.S. arsenal, including their side arm, the Samurai Edge. Mine was specially modified to fire .40S&W caliber rounds.

One night, we were sent on a mission to investigate the disappearance of the Bravo Team. When we got there, we found something very unbelievable... zombies. We were set up by Albert Wesker & Umbrella. He manipulated me by making me do his dirty work and tried to get me to kill one of my partners, Jill Valentine. Good thing she believed me when I told her the truth.

Before I joined S.T.A.R.S., I was a soldier in the U.S. Air Force, serving in the same unit as Chris Redfield, with whom I became good friends with. Later, I left the Air Force and joined the recently formed S.T.A.R.S., where I employed my vast knowledge of weaponry, I was a member of the NRA, y'know. Chris was eventually discharged from the force and began drifting, so I met up with Chris and managed to talk him into joining S.T.A.R.S. with me.

After the mansion incident, the zombies invaded Raccoon City and it was scheduled to be destroyed. Before it was, I rescued Jill Valentine & Carlos Oliveira, a mercenary that once worked for Umbrella. To this day, we are still fighting for our lives and trying to take Wesker down, who somehow is still alive.

I'm married to my lovely wife, Kathy and we have two daughters named Moira and Polly. I love them more than life itself and I would do anything for them... I think I proved that when that Bastard Wesker tricked me by saying he was holding my family hostage...
