France shares eternal flame with US for D-Day Commemoration
Fox News
France lights a flame from its eternal flame at Arc De Triomphe to show appreciation to its allies during World War II.
A single flame, protected by a white lantern and escorted by young French ambassadors, was presented to Arlington National Cemetery in time for Memorial Day.
The 34 French ambassadors — most aged 23 or younger — first took the flame to share with the United Kingdom last month. They then boarded the Queen Mary II for a seven-day voyage across the North Atlantic Ocean before arriving in New York City and taking the flame to Washington, D.C.
