The emblem of a red cross with arms of equal length on a white background is the visible
sign of protection under the 1949 Geneva Conventions. The cross was one of many symbols used
to signify medic until the introduction of firearms to battle and the increase in casualties. Henri
Durant designed the Red Cross after witnessing tens of thousands of soldiers left dying on the
battlefield with no one to help them. As such, it is the emblem of the armed forces’ medical
services.
