Aportaciones de la Cruz Roja al Comienzo de la Aviación Sanitaria
From the health drama experienced by its first protagonists in the different wars of the first decades of the 20th century to the current health problems of the general population, doctors, nurses, health technicians and pilots continue to seek to provide the best possible care to the sick or seriously injured during their evacuation by air in order to achieve a speedy recovery with the least possible sequelae.
The Red Cross was the most outstanding institution at the beginning of the activities of a new aeronautical - sanitary field that was called in its beginnings Sanitary Aviation.
The invention of the airplane as a new fast and safe means of transport gave new hope for the medical care of the seriously wounded on the battlefields at the beginning of the 20th century. In those years, these types of wounded were doomed to a long and painful evacuation, which in most cases was the prelude to certain death.
