Military trainee (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cadet

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">military trainee</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for cadet that I've seen before include "One taking instructions" , "Trainee soldier" , "Officer-trainee" , "Young trainee, eg in the police" , "officer of the future" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times, the Evening Standard, the USA Today, The Times, The Mirror, The Wall Street Journal, The Sunday Times and the LA Times.
