In most countries, the rank of Marshal is the highest Army rank (equivalent to a five-star General of the Army in the United States).

Examples of marshals in a Sentence

  2. John Bodenhamer:

    We worked with the( men) players' caddies and obtained all of the driving club information they had from the teeing grounds and then obtained the clubs they hit on approach shots and the yardages they hit them, and we gathered information from marshals on the putting greens about how the ball was reacting. So we not only knew what the men hit the first week from the tee, and their approach shots and the ranges that they were hitting but how the balls were performing on the greens.

    So Maxwell is right up my alley, whenever she walked into court, with the two U.S. marshals, she always made an entrance like she was walking down a runway, I swear to God.

  4. George Hobica:

    Airline staff have been given a lot more power and have become policemen in the skies since 9-11, i think many are abusing that authority. Most of your rights and company policies—including when you are entitled to compensation for your inconvenience— are spelled out in the conditions of carriage which can be found on an airline’s website. The lengthy terms are filled with jargon and legalese, though they’re still worth eyeballing to understand the basics. Here are key reasons why an airline can bump you or otherwise make travel difficult for you: 1. The airline priced tickets for this flight too low.If a carrier realizes through its electronic reservation system that a non-stop flight fills too fast, that could indicate the ticket fares are too cheap. In such a case, your flight could be switched from a non-stop to a connecting flight. 2. The air marshal needs your seat. Because air marshals protect the public, they are sometimes seated in first class without prior warning. If one of them shows up and needs your seat, you can be bumped, reassigned to another seat, or put on the next available flight. And you won’t even get an explanation; the government doesn’t want you to blab that there’s an air marshal on board. 3. The carrier abandons the route. Consolidation within the industry has prompted some airlines to cut back on the number of available flights. Some, such as Allegiant Air and Frontier, have also abandoned routes that are no longer profitable. An airline should be required to put you on another carrier for the price you paid, says Hobica. But that’s not the case.

  5. The UCI:

    Following discussions( with local organizers), it's been decided that the start will be delayed to 1530( local time) to allow water to be cleared, the organizing committee and the county are deploying marshals to yellow flag areas with standing water and staff and vehicles are draining water on the roads to ensure riders' safety.
