A list of puns related to "Tovarishch"
In this short film, a Russian soldier addresses her superior officer as "Tovarishch Mayor" ("Comrade Major" but the subtitles translate it as "sir.")
The film does not take place in Soviet times, as her shoulder patch says "Rossiya" in Cyrillic and has the Russian Federation flag.
Is it still common to address others as "comrade", is it just a military thing, or did the film get it wrong?
