Disregard an urge to reform regiment (9,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grenadier guards

'regiment' is the definition.
(regiment of the British Army)

'disregard an urge to reform' is the wordplay.
'to reform' indicates anagramming the letters (letters in a new form).
'disregard'+'an'+'urge'='disregardanurge'
'disregardanurge' is an anagram of 'GRENADIER GUARDS'.

(Another definition for grenadier guards that I've seen is " Soldiers".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
