National Day in France, there was a military show at the “Invalides”. Kids were having a blast, they were allowed to climb in various vehicles, talk to armed forces professionals.
Well not only kids had a good time… This man is a “Spahi”, from a unit fitted for the desert, hence the sable cape. It refers to the times when the vehicles were horses or camels. The cape would hide a lot then.
A “Chasseur Alpin”, an alpine unit.
“Les Invalides” built by Napoleon to welcome the wounded soldiers.
A pilot must be multi tasked. Talking to a crowd is not my favorite part of the job.
