Sunshine changed temperature in army shack (6,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nissen hut

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'army shack' is the definition.
'Nissen hut' can be an answer for 'shack' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'army' bit.

'sunshine changed temperature' is the wordplay.
'changed' is an anagram indicator.
'temperature' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'sunshine' with letters rearranged gives 'nissenhu'.
'nissenhu'+'t'='NISSEN HUT'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nissen hut that I've seen before include "spartan accommodation?" , "Prefabricated building of corrugated iron with a cement floor" , "Corrugated iron construction" , "Prefabricated corrugated iron dwelling" , "Simple building" .)
