A Few Good Men

◆◆ · By JD Crosbie · Published 2023-02-03T23:48:17.917Z

Constructor's Note
This is my first real attempt at a 21x21, goal Sunday NYT difficulty. There's some intentionally obtuse cluing in spots and some esoteric fill in a couple spots that was a fun wiki-wormhole as a constructor (maybe not a solver). Be forewarned this is definitely a practice puzzle with a some messy fill in places and theme is not the strongest. However, the theme is born out of an excuse to use 90-across in a crossword so that was fun. Enjoy!
