'arrive' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'me and the commander' is the wordplay.

'the commander' becomes 'co'.
'me' put after 'co' is 'COME'.

'to join' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for come that I've seen before include "' - - fly with me'" , "Rude aggressive youth" , "Approach" , "Arrive" , "Turn up" .)
