Boche

OBS: Argot militaire pour désigner un Allemand.

OBS: In informal British usage, the term refers to a German, especially a German soldier in World War I, because of the helmet worn by the German soldier of that period. The helmet resembled a jerry, which is a popular British designation for a chamber pot. The term was then used by American soldiers later on.
OBS: Jerry was using 88-mm shells.
