Military official elected — for a second term? (5)
I believe the answer is:
again
'a second term?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'military official elected' is the wordplay.
'military official' becomes 'aga' (I've seen this before).
'elected' becomes 'in'.
'aga'+'in'='AGAIN'
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for again that I've seen before include "Ocne more" , "Next time" , "Repeatedly" , "Here we go ___" , "10 10 [AGAIN" .)
