They came together to do what people do at reunions - to renew old friendships, to reminisce, to laugh, to look at old photos of them­ selves when they were younger, to sing "inside" songs, to get dressed up for a reception and to have a banquet with a speaker. In this case, the speaker was General William Westmoreland, and before the banquet, in the afternoon, the group had gone to Arlington National Cemetery to place a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. They represented 1,600 women who had served (some in the 50's, some in the 60's and some in the 70's) in an American Red Cross program which provided recreation for U.S. servicemen on duty in Europe, Korea and Vietnam. It was named Supplemental Recreational Activities Overseas (SRAO). In Europe it was known as the Red Cross center program. In Korea and Vietnam it was Red Cross clubmobile service.

  • The Role of Korean Red Cross and Democratic People's
    THE ROLE OF KOREAN RED CROSS AND DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF KOREA RED CROSS SOCIETY IN CONDUCTING FAMILY REUNION AGENDA IN KOREAN PENINSULA 2011-2013 An Undergraduate Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in International Relations By: Nuansa Deanabila 1110114000020 DEPARTMENT OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS FACULTY OF SOCIAL AND POLITICAL SCIENCE SYARIF HIDAYATULLAH STATE ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY JAKARTA 2015 ABSTRACT This research analyzes the role of Korean Red Cross (South Korea) and DPRK Red Cross Society (North Korea) in conducting family reunion agenda in Korean peninsula during the period of 2011 until 2013. The objective of this thesis is to find why both Korean Red Cross and DPRK Red Cross Society could not hold the humanitarian agenda as part of humanitarian non-governmental organizations (NGOs). This thesis is done through secondary sources. The author finds that because during those periods, despite the existence of both Red Cross in Korean peninsula can be considered as significant for the continuation of the agenda, the verdict from South and North Korean governments could not be changed or bothered by them as the governments are the officials. Moreover, as part of the National Societies of the Red Cross and Red Cresent Movement, both Red Cross have to obey the principles of the Movement. The most prominent one is the neutrality principle which adds the Korean Red Cross and DPRK Red Cross Society stance where they cannot interfere or take part in the political matter within their countries. The theoretical framework used in this thesis are track two diplomacy and the concept of non-state actors.

  • MUNUC XXIX International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Background Guide
    INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF RED CROSS AND RED CRESCENT MUNUC XXIX Topic A: Politicization of Aid Topic B: Building a Localized Response to Crises EXECUTIVE LETTER Delegates, It is my pleasure to welcome you to both this special meeting of the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, and to MUNUC XXIX. My name is Jakob Solheim and I will be serving as your committee chair. I am looking forward to a wonderful weekend with all of you. To introduce myself a little bit, I am a third year in the undergraduate college at the University of Chicago, double majoring in Economics and Public Policy. I was born in Rome, but currently hail from Vermont after living in most of Western Europe at one point or another (although never in England or Norway, where I would be an actual citizen). Outside of MUNUC, I am also an active participant in ChoMUN, UChicago’s college MUN conference. Further outside of Model UN, I enjoy reading a good book, debating American and International politics, listening to interesting people at the IOP, or acting in an inevitably silly play with University Theater. As a representative of a national chapter of the IFRC, you will be tasked with solving very nuanced challenges related to how humanitarian organizations should operate. The issue of politicization of aid is very closely related to the ethical considerations of humanitarian organizations like the IFRC. Meanwhile, the problem of establishing a local response to crises has far-ranging implications for how humanitarian organizations might respond to different disasters or crises in the future.

This invitation, which quoted Article 6 of the Regulations, was accompanied by questionnaires bearing various necessary headings for the candidatures. As limited by the Regulations, which provide for the award of a maximum of 36 medals each two years, the International Committee, after having examined with the greatest care the files submitted to it, was concerned to make a choice among the candidatures presented. It was moreover obliged to keep strictly to the regulations to the effect that no nominations reaching Geneva after the time-limit prescribed will be taken into consideration. To make exceptions to this rule only delays the Committee's decisions and the award of the medal.
