Bed in a barracks crossword clue
57 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 31, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Bed in a barracks” is COT. It appears as 57 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 31, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “I Got You Babe” by Jeff Jerome, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 9, column 12 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with C and ends with T, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
