grouchy

With her short gray hair and no-nonsense glare, Lykos was notoriously grouchy with the gavel.

This post admirably suited Grouchy, who was a horseman by nature and a cavalry soldier by instinct.

At Moskowa his cuirassiers, sabre in hand, drove the Russians out of the great redoubt, but Grouchy himself was seriously wounded.

Unfortunately, the Duke refused the opportunity to escape which was offered him, and Grouchy had to make him a prisoner.

He had an ingrowing toe nail, which sometimes made him grouchy and sour, so he was dubbed Pickles.

Before this, Marshal Grouchy had likewise expired in his eighty-first year.
