Comradery!

I don't know what it is about words with the letter C, but they just keep showing up....


Comrade:
a :  an intimate friend or associate :  companion
b :  a fellow soldier
Origin:
Middle French camarade group sleeping in one room, roommate, companion, from Old Spanish camarada, from cámara room, from Late Latin camera, camara

Sweet right? Maybe you don't think so....

I find it interesting that this word became communist lingo for those who are united in their cause (those who supported communism). Whether or not we be communists, I think we all can have more comradery amongst us.
