Army accommodation uses thin plastic between poles (6,4)
I believe the answer is:
nissen huts
'army accommodation uses thin plastic between poles' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'uses thin plastic between poles' is the wordplay.
'plastic' indicates anagramming the letters (plastic can mean easily moulded).
'between' is an insertion indicator.
'poles' becomes 'ns' (North and South poles).
'uses'+'thin'='usesthin'
'usesthin' anagrammed gives 'issenhut'.
'issenhut' put into 'ns' is 'NISSEN HUTS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for nissen huts that I've seen is " Prefabricated military buildings".)
