Brigade's gear (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rig

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

'gear' is the definition.
(I know that Rig is a type of gear)

'brigade's' is the wordplay.
'RIG' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I'm not sure how the hidden word is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rig that I've seen before include "Apparatus; fix" , "Put sails on" , "uniform perhaps" , "Oil platform" , "Set up; equipment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
