Journalist attached to a military unit during conflict (5)

I believe the answer is:

(Other definitions for embed that I've seen before include "Enclose snugly" , "bringing plant inside" , "the opposite of 19 [DEBUNK]?" , "Fix firmly (in ground)" , "Fix firmly and deeply" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
