Struggle for doctor getting into his jacket (6)
I believe the answer is:
combat
'struggle' is the definition.
(I know that combat is a type of struggle)
'doctor getting into his jacket' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'doctor' could be 'mb' (Bachelor of Medicine, Medicinae Baccalaureus) and 'mb' is found in the answer.
'jacket' could be 'coat' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'coat' is found within the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for combat that I've seen before include "Battle or fight" , "Fight - strive against" , "War; contest" , "Military action" , "Military fighting" .)
