Military order concerning spin (5-4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

about turn

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

'military order' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'concerning spin' is the wordplay.
'concerning' becomes 'about' (about can mean concerning or relating to).
'spin' becomes 'turn' (I've seen this in other clues).
'about'+'turn'='ABOUT-TURN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for about turn that I've seen before include "concerning act" , "Act of pivoting 180 degrees" , "Pivot 180 degress" , "Major change of attitude" , "command from the sergeant major?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
