| - Camp Papago Park war ein Gefangenenlager für deutsche Kriegsgefangene des Zweiten Weltkrieges in Scottsdale am Stadtrand von Phoenix in Arizona. Es existierte vom 16. September 1943 bis zum 8. April 1946 und beherbergte bis zu 3100 Kriegsgefangene, mehrheitlich aus U-Booten und Schiffen der Kriegsmarine. In der US-amerikanischen Öffentlichkeit erlangte das Lager Aufmerksamkeit durch den „Fememord“ an einem Informanten der US-Behörden, dem Gefangenen Werner Drechsler, insbesondere aber durch mehrere Ausbruchsversuche, wobei 25 Gefangene, überwiegend Offiziere, bei einem Ausbruch am 23. Dezember 1944 zeitweilig entkamen. (de)

| - Camp Papago Park was a prisoner of war (POW) facility located in Papago Park in the eastern part of Phoenix, Arizona, United States. It consisted of five compounds, four for enlisted men and one for officers. The property now is divided between the Papago Park Military Reservation, belonging to the Arizona National Guard, a city park, residential neighborhoods and a car dealer's lot. Called Schlaraffenland—the land of milk and honey—by its mostly U-boat-crew inmates, Camp Papago Park was very different from Axis POW camps, especially with regard to how prisoners were treated: Inmates were not required to work or study, though many chose to as a means of combating boredom (though mostly the latter, as there were only 700 volunteers for labor tasks). The camp had a theater where films were screened twice a week and the camp choir could practice. Much of this was discussed, along with anything else the prisoners who wrote The Papago Rundschau, the camp's newspaper, chose to include. (en)
