The cross has long been a symbol of Christianity: the Crusaders, the Cross of Malta...... Red and white can easily be seen during conflicts, be it on ambulances or a waving flag. It was assumed that,on seeing the red and white symbol, the enemy would realise that the wounded were being evacuated and would not attack them. In Muslim countries a green crescent on a white background is used.
