Army Cadets of America, Inc. (ACA) is a non profit youth exploration program for teens ages 14-16 all over the country,  exposing them to what career opportunities are in the military and provide them first hand knowledge and experience in the many military occupational skills.

Our program is a Learning for Life Explorer program with the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) with strong links to the US Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard, and State Guard Forces.  However, our adults and explorers are not members of the armed forces by virtue of their membership in the Army Cadets of America.

Army Explorers cadets receive similar training that regular soldiers receive.  Army Explorers participate in the  regular Army Physical Fitness training and testing, Drill & Ceremony, Military Customs and Courtesies, CPR and First Aid, Land Navigation, Radio Communications, Aviation, Leadership, Marksmanship, Search and Rescue, Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training, Field Exercises, and much more!
