Your choice is a real puzzle, one that treads the line concerning the rules of the game, at least for me.

As you already know, I speak French. Défiler is a verb meaning to march in order, like in a parade, as I remember. It also means to "unstring" things that are strung together, like beads.

Although "défilade" is NOT a proper word in French, per se, I can see how, in English, it might be a noun derived from the verb. Am I on the right track?

I think your on the right track. I've heard it before in militray terms. I believe it describes the formation of militray lines as they are exposed to enemies.
