The Grand Ducal Gendarmerie (French: Gendarmerie Grand-Ducale) was a French-style gendarmerie force in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg that was responsible for law enforcement in the countyside.
Famous quotes containing the word grand:
“Unpretending mediocrity is good, and genius is glorious; but a weak flavor of genius in an essentially common person is detestable. It spoils the grand neutrality of a commonplace character, as the rinsings of an unwashed wine-glass spoil a draught of fair water.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
