martinet

Schiano, the former coach at Rutgers, brought a reputation with him as a harsh disciplinarian and a martinet.

Whereas Lessard had acted the martinet with MacRae, he took another tack and became the very essence of affability toward me.

The colonel was absolutely military to the backbone, a martinet even in home life, although "his bark was worse than his bite."

Newspapers wrote of him that, "a martinet to subordinates, he was known for the most unruly of lieutenants."

Though an officer of the regular army, he brings home to one the fact that the days of the military martinet have gone for ever.

The first of them was Captain Bulger, an unfortunate martinet, though a man of good conscience and high ideals.
