Blue Cross in France during WWI
Question concerning the Blue Cross during World War One. I have two
covers as follows: http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m...ngfors/bc2.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m...ngfors/bc1.jpg Both are covers from France and concern soldiers. I know of the Blue Cross UK animal welfare charity.They started out in Victorian times, looking after working horses in London. Their website is http://www.bluecross.org.uk/web/site/home/home.asp. I have an image for the Blue Cross in this regard he http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m...ors/Horses.jpg There is also present day Blue Cross & Blue Shield Health Insurance in the USA and Blue Cross in Europe which nowadays seems to help those suffering from alcholism or drug addiction. My question is: What was the Blue Cross during WWI? What was their connection with the Red Cross? What happened to the Blue Cross? Any help would be very myuch appreciated. -- John Taormina The MIDDLE-AGED one To email me you must remove "notme" and "jack" |
