| Description: | FRENCH ARMY EXHIBITION French army hold exhibition in stadium. France Shot looking down at group of men in suits - government representatives, other VIPs? In a sort of flag ceremony, someone - possibly President Raymond Poincare - hands flag to each of 4 or 5 soldiers. Troops march in stadium (shot from ground in center; w/ spectators in seats in BG) Cavalry shot from above riding round stadium in long rows like spokes of a wheel. Cavalry charge approaching camera from across large flat field. The men ride w/ swords extended upward - rather exciting. | |
