Can someone kindly put me out of my misery with the following?
9a Coarse file (4) - which I think is rasp
2d Destroyed (6) ?a?p?d - which I thought might be sacked but not if rasp is correct for 9a.
With grateful thanks.

Zapped?
2d Zapped ?
9a - rank. it is a file in military talk
2d - sacked could be right.
Question Author
Many thanks 1955, Emeritus and Baitress. Guess it has to be zapped but , being an 'oldie', have never associated this term with 'destroyed'. Don't think that 'rank' is the answer to 'file' which, according to the clue, is a coarse file.
Grateful to you all. cwaddict
rank also means coarse
