Lookout soldier (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sentry

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sentry that I've seen before include "Person posted to keep watch for some anticipated event" , "Sentinel, watch" , "Soldier on guard" , "Watchperson" , "Military lookout" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
