Military chaplain (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

padre

'military chaplain' is the definition.
(I know that military chaplain can be written as padre)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for padre that I've seen before include "Sky pilot (military slang)" , "non-combatant officer" , "Army chaplain" , "Minister" , "Services' chaplain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Independent, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Mirror.
