It turns out my friend had forgotten the fact.
In fact, it was some time in the 19th century, and it was Liechtenstein, not Luxembourg, who had sent her army to fight the Italians. They started with 40 or 80, and returned with 41 or 81.

Re: Interesting WWII facts
This hardly constitutes as a WWII fact, it just shows the British character (I think), my grandmother was 12 in 1940 and was living in London with her family. During the blitz her cousins were sent to the countryside but returned because they found it far too boring. So she never left London for the entire duration of the war.
