Paul Foley

Field Marshall Paul Foley was the highest ranking officer in the Terran Empire during the Alliance-Yagh Conflict and the father of Colonel John Foley. Appointed by Premier Parker as the Commander-in-Chief of the Terran military for the duration of the war, Foley could do very little to stop the Yagh. However, few blame him for this due to the Parsians lack of ability to stop the Yagh also. During the third year of the war, not long after halting the Yagh's advance on Earth, Foley suffered a heart attack and died several days later. Following his death, the position of Commander-in-Chief was returned to the Premier.
