With flying fighter jets, a drone show above the Eiffel tower and fireworks in almost every city, France is celebrating its national holiday today. In Paris, more than 7,000 soldiers, on foot, on horseback and in vehicles, over the cobbles of the Champs-Elysées, under the watchful eye of President Emmanuel Macron and thousands of spectators.
