Military sort prepared sild and roe (7)
I believe the answer is:
soldier
'military sort' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'prepared sild and roe' is the wordplay.
'prepared' indicates an anagram.
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'sild'+'roe'='sildroe'
'sildroe' anagrammed gives 'SOLDIER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for soldier that I've seen before include "Army fighter" , "One of man's 22 20 [SEVEN AGES]" , "trained killer" , "One enlisted" , "Tommy Atkins or GI Joe?" .)
