"Red Cross Flag" The red cross emblem was adopted under the original Geneva Convention of 1864. It’s an inversion of the Swiss flag (a white cross on a red background). This recogn ises the historic connection between Switzerland and the original Geneva Convention. The red cross emblem has no intentional religious meaning. In times of war, the red cross, red crescent and red crystal emblems mean ‘don’t shoot!’. They signify neutrality and protection. To be effective, everyone must understand the emblems' meaning and must have trust in them. The emblem can also be used to show that a person or object is connected with the International Red Cross Movement, which includes the British Red Cross. Red Cross organisations may use these symbols in their logos because of their longstanding role in caring for the sick and wounded during armed conflict. 1:32 SCALE - BRITAINS DEETAIL STYLE Ideal for Toy Collectors, Gamers and Enthusiasts, this flag is made from high quality vinyl, wrapped and fitted to purpose made plastic flag pole.
