The Extreme Military Challenge! Military Summer Camp (XMC), operated by Liberty Communications, LLC, is the premier program of its type on the finest facility available. Our Cadre consists of qualified Officers and NCOs (including legitimate joint-service Drill Instructors) as well as youth development professionals. XMC's senior staff have 35+ years experience leading Military Summer Camps in locations throughout the United States. We have provided thousands of teenagers the opportunity to experience the lifestyle of a military career through a variety of realistic and challenging programs.
Why Should You Choose XMC?
** Our location is hands-down the best training site available, compared to the handful of programs somewhat similar to XMC. We have large state-of-the-art classrooms, air conditioning in all sleeping quarters and fantastic on-site resources as listed below. XMC's staff is passionate about providing the best and safest experience possible, while still giving young men and women an incredibly realistic and challenging look at what a military career would entail.
​
** We only enroll young men and women who WANT to attend our camps. We do not take disciplinary cases. We are not here to "fix" kids, only to help them succeed. We are absolutely NOT a "Scared Straight" type of program. In fact, we are firmly against using the military training model for such purposes. Our program is for those who are motivated and WANT to attend.
** We are not focused on recruiting your son or daughter to attend a military high school. This is the case with many programs on military school campuses, where their summer camp is just a recruiting tool to gain more full-time students for their private school. The XMC staff is focused solely on providing the best summer experience possible, with no secondary mission of recruiting for a high school or using summer camp funds to keep a school afloat.
** The qualifications of the primary cadre of XMC are unmatched. Our staff provides decades of extensive experience in the Cadet training environment. Our program's primary leadership is nationally known as Subject Matter Experts in military Cadet development.

Extreme Military Challenge!
Features:
​
Participants
We are NOT a program for delinquent or "at-risk" youth. Our Cadets must be drug-free and crime-free and want to attend. Ages 13-18.
​
Barracks
250+ beds in differing styles of barracks. New "Recruits" attending our Cadet Basic Training stay in open-bay style buildings just like real military basic training. Returning Cadets stay in smaller groups apart from first time participants. Our buildings have large and modern latrines with private showers and stalls.
​
Program Schedule
Training days are full of activities and classes, and are based on real Basic Training with early morning PT, inspections and time-honored ceremonies such as Evening Retreat.
​​​
Rappel Tower, Rifle Range, Pool and Training Areas
All are within easy access of Camp Liberty especially our on-site obstacle course, marksmanship range and tactical shoothouse. We partner with local law enforcement and other groups for use of off-site locations as well.
​​​
Staff Experience
Extensive experience in the operation and management of 30+ Cadet summer training programs. Our team possesses vast military, Cadetting and corporate experience. They include Certified Rangemasters, Certified Rappelmasters, CPR/First Aid Instructors and much more. We pride ourselves in having the best staff of any program of our type, with legitimate Drill Instructors working with our Cadet Basic Training programs
​​
Food Service
Nutritiously balanced meals are prepared by a dedicated team assigned to the Camp Liberty Dining Facility (DFAC). Our menues are based on the U.S. Army's 21-day schedule. We ensure each Challenger is provided the calories and nutrition needed in our high-intensity environment. Cadets serve as Kitchen Patrols (KPs) to clean up after meals and learn responsibility.
​​​
Environment
Our tough program is meant to challenge and enhance teenagers. Courses are held in a military atmosphere to teach discipline and self-confidence. We do not recruit for the military. Our goal is to provide our Cadets with the ability to make an informed decision about joining the military. We also introduce them to the different career paths available, including college, law enforcement, emergency medicine and others.
​​
Enrollment Process
Enrollment is completely online, with automated billing to your credit card. Just click Enroll Now! here or at the top of the page.
​​
Price
We are competitively priced, and believe we provide the best experience available for the cost. Our dedicated staff, meals, uniforms and all other training costs are included in enrollment fee.
​​
Uniforms
The Army Combat Uniform, with distinct modifications, are worn by Cadets and cadre. Uniforms and equipment are provided as part of enrollment cost. We adhere to Army uniform standards found in AR 670-1, ensuring all uniforms are properly modified. While the Cadets do wear the Army Combat Uniform, we have a diverse staff from all the service branches and the Cadets are exposed to the opportunities each service provides.
​​​
Duration
Our Training Mission covers seven weeks of total programming. Options for First-Time Attendees range from 2 to 7 weeks. See our Dates And Prices page for a complete list.
