Biography
As a lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps, Stewart ran an op in Vlatava, during which an unnamed soldier and a number of others were killed. Six months later, he begun visiting the unnamed soldier's widow, before eventually marrying her.

Stewart was briefly appointed as head of DARPA. He also served as a commander during a conflict in Kahndaq, for which he was twice-commended. Following this, he was appointed commandant of the Marine Corps, and later chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff.

Stewart eventually rose to the rank of general. He was visited by his stepson, John Diggle, and Oliver Queen, who hoped for help on a case regarding the Ninth Circle, but he was unable to. However, he sent men to help when the Ninth Circle attacked Smoak Technologies. Stewart was subsequently taken to the Arrowcave, where he explained that his people had been tracking the Ninth Circle's activities. He received a call, informing him of a single undercover agent, Julian Sison, who was unaccounted for, and so they mounted a search for him. John and the general were ambushed by Dante, who tranqed and kidnapped them. Dante tortured them until Stewart gave up codes to Cygnus X-1, before they were able to escape. Team Arrow proceeded to track the Ninth Circle through their use of the Archer program; Stewart helped oversee the operation. Though unsuccessful in stopping them from stealing Cygnus X-1, they destroyed Archer. Following the mission, Stewart and John said their goodbyes, making amends.
