OpsLens Deck of 52 Most Wanted Post 9/11 Frontline Leaders
Once a week, for 52 weeks this year, OpsLens will post a card highlighting Post 9/11 Frontline Leaders. And, yes, this is a spinoff from the 2003 Deck of Most Wanted Playing Cards! This time around, we are talking about, honoring, and bring awareness to post 9/11 businesses or charities launched by the military community.
You’ll learn the top facts about their business or organization, as well as why they made the list, which comes down to impact, scalability, health and unique value proposition. We encourage you to look for these weekly updates, share the card with your network, and support or buy the products and services they offer.

From a family wellness interview, Founder Philip Freeman said, “During my search, I quickly realized there was a significant gap in the market for a brand that focuses on natural, effective and responsibly sourced mosquito repellent products. There are many companies who ‘play’ in the natural repellent world, but that is typically a side product and not a brand focus. Realizing the significance of the gap we decided to develop and launch Murphy’s Naturals with a focus on building a broad natural repellent brand for at home and on the go.”
