What's Barrington's deal?

Remind me again what the deal is with "Barrington".
In X #8 or so, Wolverine finds that name in a computer database, but can't get any more info. In W #60, he's namedropped as part of the Team X unit on the Berlin mission where they fought Omega Red. (He's arranging a helicopter to airlift the team out.) I seem to recall that he was the villain of the backup stories in X #12-13. And then, didn't he become an actual character in the Maverick ongoing series?
The MCP lists him as appearing in Gen X Annual '95. And that's the *only* place they list him.
In that Team X/Berlin/Omega Red flashback, which is mainly covered in X #5-7, the team's taking orders from someone called "the Major". In the present-day sequences of X #5-7, Maverick is *also* taking orders from a "Major". Are they the same Majors? Is the Major also Barrington?
Can anyone who's more Barrington-savvy than me help out? Thanks!
