Random House Dictionary:
can·ton·ment (kan tonÆmÃnt, -t$nÆ-; esp. Brit. kan tÁnÆmÃnt), n.
1. a camp, usually of large size, where men are trained for military service.
2. military quarters.
3. the winter quarters of an army.
[1750–60; < F cantonnement, equiv. to cantonne(r) to quarter troops (see CANTON) + -ment -MENT]
Notice the emphasis is British English - so \"cantonment\" would be perfectly fine for a British target group. However, this is rarely used if the target is an American audience.
