As a pilot, John Foley was named a &#8220;Top Ten Carrier Pilot&#8221; six times before becoming a Navy flight instructor and joining the Blue Angels. He holds a master&#8217;s degree in business management from the Stanford Graduate School of Business (where he was a Sloan Fellow), a degree in international politics from Stanford University, and a degree in strategic studies from the Naval War College.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, John Foley established the Glad To Be Here\u00ae Foundation.
