Military and political career

He was the second most powerful man during the Marcos regime. Ver graduated from the University of the Philippines, led the Reserved Officers Training Corps, and worked his way up as a regular officer in the military ranks, serving as a guerilla intelligence officer in World War II and after. He was loyal to Marcos, and Marcos repayed his loyalty by appointing him as the head of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. Ver would be a feared figure during the martial law years, but he was not known to have committed human rights violations. Martial law was lifted in 1981, and Ver continued to serve until he was appointed Chief of Staff or head of the armed forces over Gen. Fidel V. Ramos who was Chief of Constabulary, and Ver's junior officer. Ver also headed the Presidential Security Command (PSC) and the National Intelligence Security Agency (NISA).

Crisis

Ver kept officers loyal to Marcos and the Constitution on the armed forces, thus making rebellious officers disgruntled. The Reform the Armed Forces Movement (RAM) was formed as a result of this. The RAMboys, as they were known in the Philippines, played a key role in Marcos' overthrow. As the Marcos regime grew unpopular during these years, Marcos would be in and out of office due to kidney ailments. Political mismanagement would ensue, culminating with the 1983 assassination of popular oppositionist Senator Benigno Aquino, Jr. upon his return from exile in the United States. Ver was accused of having conspired with a certain Rolando Galman who shot Aquino. The Agrava Commission, an independent fact-finding body put up by Ferdinand Marcos, would have Ver be indicted for the crime, but was subsequently acquitted in 1985.

Later life

After the snap elections of 1986, the People Power Revolution would come. Ver went into exile in the United States along with his children, and was eventually granted asylum in Germany. Asked why he did not take over the government despite his powers during the last days of Marcos, he said, 'the Constitution is supreme, and I must obey it.' He would not be heard of for a while despite of allegations against him by the government. Ver wanted to go home to shed light in the assassination of Benigno Aquino, and moved from Germany to Bangkok, to be nearer Manila. The government was apprehensive Ver would incriminate politicians who were back in power. He was denied his right to travel. In November 1998, it was revealed that he was ill and ailing in Bangkok. He died on November 21 and his remains were brought back to the Philippines. He was buried in his hometown of Sarrat, Ilocos Norte with full military honors.
