Why is a shelter half called a shelter half?
Because it was one half of a shelter. You got together with a buddy, and put your two halves together and made a whole shelter. The two halves buttoned together made a two-man pup tent. Most men quickly abandoned their shelter half as heavy, bulky and in the way once they got into action. They were picked up by the quartermasters, and used mostly for burial shrouds.

Is a campsite lean to to set your tent up under?
A lean-to is a building with three sides and a sloping roof. Its use is not primarily to house a tent, but I suppose if it was big enough, then you could set one up under it. Lean-to's are generally small and use for storage or shelter. A tent is shelter, itself; there's no need to build a lean-to around it unless you want to keep the dew/rain off the tent.

Where to put a shelter when camping?
Regardless of what you are sleeping in it needs to be on a piece of high ground. I have set up tents in camp before and found them to be in a low spot only after the rain came and flooded the tent. Look at the area closely. If you are in a tent and sleeping on the ground, police the area (clean it of twigs and rocks) before you set up the tent. Once you have set up the tent you are committed to that area for the night unless you want to move the tent in the dark. Even the smallest pebble or twig or root will feel like a buick under you when you sleep. Keep the tent away from the fire pit. Ashes can and will burn holes through the tent. If you can see the stars through the burn holes then you can feel the rain too. Do not pitch the tent in a highly used path that is used by people or animals. Do not pitch the tent too close to the latrine area.
