Crossword Genius

Uniform for a soldier (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

regular

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'uniform' is the first definition.
('regular' can be similar in meaning to 'uniform')

'a soldier' is the second definition.
(member of the regular army)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for regular that I've seen before include "Routine" , "In accordance with a fixed order" , "fighter" , "'Steady, uniform (7)'" , "Symmetrically arranged" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
