Red Cross
The word 'crusade' derives from 'cross'. Jesus died on the cross, which is the basis for the Christian religion. Muslims had occupied the holy city of Jerusalem, therefore a pope made a call within western Christendom for a 'War of the Cross' or 'Crusade' to re-capture Jerusalem.
The word crusade is a blend of the Middle French word croisade and the Spanish word cruzada. These are both derived from the Latin word cruc-, meaning cross. The most basic translation is help the cross.
Well, technically, yes because the crusaders wore a cross on their garments. Although, it doesn't exactly translate into "war of the cross".
