A Colonel in the Salvadoran Army, Aguirre led two successful coups against the Salvadoran government: once in 1931 (installing General Maximiliano Hernández Martínez in power) and again in 1944 (installing himself in power). He was deposed himself in March 1945 and forced to flee into exile in Honduras. He was later assassinated near his home in San Salvador at the age of 87.
