Kamerad m (genitive Kameraden, plural Kameraden)

Usage notes

Does not carry the association with socialism or communism that 'comrade' has in English. (See Genosse.) Instead, Kamerad is associated with members of the military and right‐wing extremists. It can be safely used as a neutral term, however. It has historically been used as a truce or surrender word.
