It gets orders to execute (6,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

firing squad

(Other definitions for firing squad that I've seen before include "Execution detail" , "Those who execute" , "Shooting party" , "Line of executioners" , "Group detailed to shoot condemned prisoner" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
