Ranks in the French Army:

Could anyone with any knowledge on this subject fix either this article, or the Ranks in the French Army article? Shinobu 19:43, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

message: "In 2002, in accordance with commitments entered into by Jacques Chirac at the time of her countryside for the presidential election of 2002, the forces of gendarmerie were attached to the ministry for the interior for their missions of interior safety. The gendarmes continued however to raise of the military statute. The brigades were reorganized in communities of brigades to the broader sphere of activity. The Law of orientation and programming for interior safety also took part in a new distribution of the forces of gendarmerie and police force in France."
This section appears to have been machine-translated; I've tried re-writing the paragraph but there are a few places where I just had to guess that it meant, so it's a bit vague and may not be accurate. Phonemonkey 13:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Hello, I have just done phase 1 of a multi-phase update as the article really needed it.
Among the points I have modified:
* the Gendarmerie has been attached to the Ministry of Interior since 2009 (after a transition phase started in 2002).
* In 2016, France reduced the number of its metropolitan administrative regions (ie not including overseas territories) from 22 to 12.
* The Mobile Gendarmerie organization has been slighty modified (the Paris-based FGMI has been disestablished).
There is still plenty to do, which I intend to do in the near future. 
Please feel free to edit, correct etc. as my English is far from perfect. And of course, feel free to ask questions if some of my changes surprise you. Best regards, --Domenjod (talk) 15:13, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

message: Should we change the title to this? There are many countries that have a National Gendarmerie, like Mexico, Chile, etc. I don't think we should give France's National Gendarmerie the main title for this. MX (✉ • ✎) 21:56, 17 November 2017 (UTC)

message: I don't really know how to modify this sentence:
:In 1720, the Maréchaussée was officially attached to the Household of the King (Maison du Roi), together with the gendarmerie of the time, which was not a police force at all, but a royal guard. During the eighteenth century, the marshalcy developed in two distinct areas: increasing numbers of Marshalcy Companies (compagnies de marechaussée), dispersed into small detachments, were stationed around the French countryside to maintain law and order, while specialist units provided security for royal and strategic sites such as palaces and the mint (e.g., the garde de la prévôté de l'hôtel du roi and the prévôté des monnaies de Paris.)
