The Calloway Martial College was a provincial school within the Free Worlds League established during the Star League era.


History[edit]

The Calloway Martial College (CMC) was established on Calloway VI in the mid-twenty-eighth century. The founding of the CMC was one of the steps taken by the Dormuth Council to deal with the high recruitment numbers seen in colleges, academies and militia training centers across the Free Worlds League, and the CMC was one of three major new schools founded within a relatively short period of time - the other two being the Humphreys School of Warfare on Kanata and the Athene Combat School on Atreus.[1]

The first of the three new schools to be up and running, the CMC incorporated a training unit - the Calloway Training Battalion - and by 2765 the Training Battalion was already defending important industrial sites against piracy, helping to compensate for a lack of readily available federal or provincial troops in the immediate vicinity. Benefiting from the close proximity of the CMC to production facilities operated by Earthwerks Incorporated, who arranged a mutually beneficial relationship with the CMC, exchanging protection from bandit raids for supplying the Calloway Training Battalion with equipment from their production lines.[1]

Notes[edit]

The Calloway Martial College was presumably destroyed or disbanded during the Succession Wars.
