I saw a cool pic of the Thunderbirds over on National Review's web site:

Pictured, the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds fly over the Arc de Triomphe during the traditional Bastille Day military parade in Paris, France, July 14. (Philippe Wojazer/Reuters)

Very cool, indeed...as it happens, however, that's not the Arc de Triomphe (which doesn't have statues on the top like the picture shows):

The Arc de Triomphe should not be confused with a smaller arch, the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, which stands west of the Louvre. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_de_Triomphe#Details)

Also, in my own humble opinion - being prior USN and all that - it would be way cooler if it were the Blue Angels (just kidding, props to the USAF FDS).

Great pic.
