CU tricolor banner that says "Francaise" and has an unidentified symbol at center. CU men kneeling; they salute. LS men at attention in courtyard. Shot of banner again. LS March out through iron-grill gate to Arc de Triomphe. Several shots of tomb of France's unknown soldier, including good final HA, with several people giving Nazi salute.
