Colonel's subordinate (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

major

'colonel's subordinate' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for major that I've seen before include "grave" , "Important - ex-PM" , "5,27 [PRIME MINISTER]" , "Chief - officer" , "Large" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
