Where the Germans outgun me (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bremen

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'where the germans outgun' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'me' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'me' is within the answer.
The remaining letters 'bren' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bremen that I've seen before include "North German city on the Weser" , "City and state of NW Germany" , "German port city and state" , "City and state of northwest Germany" , "Major German port" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
