Best Answer

a kommando is just a squad.

on the easter front 'Sonderkommando' (special squads) were sent out to kill Jews.

work groups from concentration camps were call kommandos, they were named after their leader, so if the leader was called Patel, then the squad would be called the Patelkommando.

in many of the death camp the 'stokers' (to give them their offical title) were called Sonderkommado (special squads) - known now as Jewish Sonderkommando as not to be confused with the pre-existing Sonderkommando.
