Anthony B. Miles: From Submarine Force to Vision Strong™ Duval
Anthony B. Miles brings the discipline and precision of the U.S. Navy Trident Nuclear Submarine Force into a mission to protect vision across Duval County. From serving aboard the USS Alaska (SSBN 732 Blue) to founding Firstline, Anthony has always been driven by one principle: safeguarding lives. Vision Strong Duval carries that commitment forward, uniting schools, job sites, and communities under one shared goal — to protect 100,000 lives through better vision safety. His story is more than leadership; it’s the credibility and trust that anchors a citywide movement.
