Speculation[edit]
Judging by Captain Tagon's age and career, the Wars ended some 20-23 years before Sergeant Schlock enlisted with the Toughs. Coming from a military family, Tagon likely enlisted at the earliest possible age, and after four years in infantry would have been around 22 at the beginning of hostilities. If that assumption is correct and if the notes from Howard's private Wikidpad are still canon, and Tagon was indeed 45 when his company was purchased by Breya and Kevyn. the wars took place some time between 3072 and 3075.
