Colonel Skowronski was a loyal colonel of the Red Army and a former fighter pilot during World War II.
He was originally the commander of the San Hieronymo base, but after Gene started his rebellion, Skowronski's men turned on him. Skowronski later attempted to kill Python, but failed due to Python's armor, with Python proceeding to lock him up in a cell, freezing the door shut. Big Boss talked to him after Python left. Skowronski mentioned that he had been a pilot in WWII and if he had a Mig or a Sukhoi he would be able to kill Gene himself. After listening to his drunken rantings Big Boss shoots the lock, releasing him. Later on, he attempted to kill Gene by shooting at him with the minigun that was attached to Metal Gear RAXA. Ursula then threw Skowronski from the cockpit to his death by using her telekinetic powers.
