Allan C. Polley, senior lecturer and retired lieutenant colonel, U.S. Marine Corps, received a B.A. in economics from Texas Tech University, an M.S. in defense systems analysis from the Naval Postgraduate School, and an M.A. in international relations from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy (Tufts University). He was an F-4 Radar Intercept Officer with VMFA-232 for over six years, attending the Navy Fighter Weapons School (“Topgun”; pre-Hollywood) and the Weapons and Tactics Instructor course, and making three WestPac deployments. After a “headquarters" tour where he served consecutively as the Manpower and Procurement Analyst for POM 94-99 and as Aide-de- Camp for the Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps, he joined the DRMI faculty for the first time in September 1992. In June 1995 he departed for F/A- 18D Weapons and Sensors Officer (WSO) training, with follow-on service as the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Officer for the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, MCAS El Toro. He rejoined the DRMI faculty in June 1997 and retired from active duty in October 2000. Mr. Polley retired (again!) in June 2016 but rejoined the DRMI faculty in August 2021.
