  Jim Foreman retired in 2018 after 27 years in the U.S. Navy SEALs where he rose through the ranks to become a Command Master Chief.  During his tenure as Command Master Chief, Jim also served as a Squadron Master Chief, and as an Operations Master Chief for a command with 2,000 SEALs, and then finally as a Training Master Chief where he was responsible for overseeing the leadership development and training operations of all East Coast based U.S. Navy SEAL Teams. Jim has 18 combat deployments in twelve countries, and a distinguished record of honor, professionalism, and success.  While deployed, he planned and executed our nation’s highest priority combat missions and furthered the national security objectives of senior leadership within the Pentagon, the Legislative branch, and the Office of the President.  For his outstanding leadership and distinguished service, Jim was awarded a Silver Star medal, eight Bronze Star medals, a purple heart and five Presidential Unit Citations. In his last year of active duty, Jim wrote the Standard Operating Procedures Handbook for leadership roles and responsibilities amongst the U.S. Navy SEAL Teams.  The Handbook established a comprehensive set of basic tactics, guidelines, and procedures that all future U.S. Navy SEAL leaders are expected to know and live by.  Today this Handbook has been adopted by Naval Special Warfare, and it is considered required reading for the next generation of Navy SEAL leaders on both the West and East Coast.
