The Camp Liberty mission is rooted in a family tradition of military service, patriotism and service to others.
The Founding of Liberty Communications
Liberty Communications, LLC was formed in 1999. The name honors the men and women who have served in the Armed Forces, and specifically the service of Master Sergeant Joseph W. Crawford, the late grandfather of Joseph M. Land, Sr. Camp Liberty became the dedicated home of Extreme Military Challenge! and expanded into a campus for lodging, events, recreation and professional training.
