Wild bull made charges intended for medical unit (5,9).

F - - - D / - M - - - - - - -

I thought this might be an anagram but the answer I'm thinking of is

FIELD AMBULANCE


Hear about work horse getting prize (6).

T - O - - -

I've got TROPHY (prize) for this. It must be that but don't see how the clue works out. OP for work, H for horse, leaving T R Y.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

You buy bananas in a hand, but can't see the rest of the reasoning behind the clue.

Ah! Try a case, of course! So that was an anagram, after all - fiance! Slice as a noun. Thanks, everyone.

I don't
have an answer for this one:

He contracts out military gear(6,5).

- - E - - - / C - - - -

I'm making a guess at the second word but it's only a hunch.

End up overcoming one with light force (7).
