FLORENT TALLARICO
Reservists

I spent two years photographing in total immersion the reservists of the 6th and 7th company of the 21st Marine Infantry Regiment of Fréjus, and the School of Light Aviation of the Army of Cannet des Maures. "Reservists" offers a new vision of these men who make the Army a vocation. Out of their daily lives, they put their time at the service of the nation. They are dual citizens because they contribute to the defence of the nation but also have civilian professional activities. They are lawyers, painters, businessmen, but they are also reservists.
