Explanation:

• A POW camp is a detention center for enemy soldiers detained by a war force. For both valid and unlawful purposes, warring parties keep military prisoners in captivity, including separation from enemy combatants who are in the field; declaration of military victory; punishment for crimes of war; coercion, recruiting or even conscription of their labor, strategic and political intelligence gathering from them or or indoctrinating them in new religious/political beliefs
• A military camp is a semi-permanent army lodging facility.  Camps are established whenever military forces are moved away during preparation or operations from a big installation or fort and mostly take the form of large camps
