Ambulances are not bullet proof.
The first civil war ambulance was invented during the American Civil War, which lasted from 1861 to 1865. The concept of organized ambulance services for transporting wounded soldiers was significantly developed by the Union Army, particularly under the direction of Jonathan Letterman, who established a more systematic approach to medical evacuation. The use of horse-drawn ambulances became standard practice during this time, improving the efficiency of medical care on the battlefield.
No, the American Red Cross doesn't have ambulances.
The term ambulance comes from the Latin word ambulare, meaning to walk or move about which is a reference to early medical care where patients were moved by lifting or wheeling. The word originally meant a moving hospital, which follows an army in its movements.During the American Civil War vehicles for conveying the wounded off the field of battle were called ambulance wagons.Field hospitals were still called ambulances during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and in the Serbo-Turkish war of 1876 even though the wagons were first referred to as ambulances about 1854 during the Crimean War.
It would depend on which civil war you are referring to.
