Military chaplain has living accommodation with soldiers (5)
I believe the answer is:
padre
'military chaplain' is the definition.
(I know that military chaplain can be written as padre)
'living accommodation with soldiers' is the wordplay.
'living accommodation' becomes 'pad' (I've seen this in other clues. I am not sure about the 'living' bit.).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'soldiers' becomes 'RE' (Royal Engineers).
'pad'+'re'='PADRE'
'has' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for padre that I've seen before include "Cleric" , "Priest, chaplain" , "Father" , "Army serviceman?" , "Sky pilot (military slang)" .)
