Transported soldiers for training (4)

I believe the answer is:

rapt

'transported' is the definition.
(both can mean enchanted or fascinated)

'soldiers for training' is the wordplay.
'soldiers' becomes 'RA' (abbreviation for Royal Artillery).
'for' says to put letters next to each other.
'training' becomes 'pt' (abbreviation for physical training).
'ra'+'pt'='RAPT'

(Other definitions for rapt that I've seen before include "Fully intent, fascinated" , "Part being transported" , "Ecstatic in part" , "Enraptured, entranced" , "Part (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
