Appeal from injured guerilla American soldier ignored (6)

I believe the answer is:

allure

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

'appeal' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'injured guerilla american soldier ignored' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'american' could be 'a' (common abbreviation - e.g. in organisation names) and 'a' is located in the answer.
'soldier' could be 're' and 're' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for allure that I've seen before include "Attraction, appeal" , "Enticement, attraction" , "Seduction" , "The power to entice or attract" , "Charm, magnetism" .)
