Pot or potty for a group of soldiers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

troop

'a group of soldiers' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'pot or potty' is the wordplay.
'potty' indicates anagramming the letters (potty can mean mad).
'pot'+'or'='potor'
'potor' with letters rearranged gives 'TROOP'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for troop that I've seen before include "Flock, crowd" , "A company of people, soldiers or scouts" , "Porto (anag.)" , "herd" , "A company, unit" .)
