MAG pilots beware, it might be good to stock up on Preparation PH in case Foley plans to do another XJ here.
I don't think JO would need to bring in outside talent to bone pilots
There are rampant rumors of mass firings at MAG HQ late last week. Foley might have been brought in to clean house...JO would consider him to be philosophically compatible with MAG and JO.
Perhaps JO is trying to deflect blame from himself by rolling subordinate heads.
There is also some suspicion in the rank the file that the man himself is out, and Foley is HIS replacement...I'm honestly not sure which would be worse
