A Sundial Serenade

A poem, edited by Kevin Karney, that was read at the 2017 BSS Conference in Oxford. It details how RAF ground staff stationed at Kalyan airfield, India, during 1945, relieved their boredom and homesickness by constructing a makeshift sundial (a 'mound' with a pole gnomon and painted components) outside the Mess.
