Boil (as well as his partner, Waxer) began as a "shiny", "rookie", or a standard Clone Trooper, and was eventually promoted to being a Platoon Sergeant for the 212th Attack Battalion with his fellow partner after they succeeded in destroying an entire droid base in an off-screen battle.

Once Boil and his partner Waxer became more experienced, they began to become a bit more mature; yet they were often impatient like with Commander Wolffe (CC-3636) of the 104th Wolfpack Co.; even though they both began to develop more patience and sensitivity, as well as caring a bit more for others. Such as when they helped rescue a young female Twi'lek prisoner named Numa on the planet of Ryloth.

Boil was mainly assigned to small recon missions. Such as on the planet or world of Kiros; the Togrutan home world. Yet he was also involved in other major battles, such as the Second Battle Of Geonosis
