Camp Grant, located near Rockford, Illinois, held Axis prisoners — primarily German — during the later war years. Like most American PoW camps, it issued scrip to allow prisoners to make canteen purchases without handling official U.S. currency, a requirement under the Geneva Convention's provisions on prisoner labor and compensation. The scrip system also allowed authorities to control and monitor purchasing activity within the compound.
S&B#1053 places this within Schwan and Boling's broader classification of U.S. military payment and detention facility issues. Camp Grant scrip is modestly scarce — the camp closed in 1946 and most remaining scrip was destroyed rather than redeemed.
