Chad - 2021 Hospital Ships


There are single stamps with hospital ships, but they were on cover and thus hard to see the stamp at such a small size.

Israel 1973

25th Anniversary of Magen David Adom

The tab on the stamp is a quotation from the Jerusalem Talmud, Sanhedrin 4:1 (22a):
"Whoever saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world."

This post is devoted to Ellie88's successful operation and continued good health.

My only other stamp depicting my favourite type of road vehicle.
I have the South Africa (English) version and not the SWA overprint, but I wanted a good, clear image.

Can't show the entire emergency vehicle but here is a statue stamp of part of the vehicle, Balto



And now the real hero, Togo and parts of the vehicle, Leonhard Seppala. No stamp for this pair:



It was an emergency delivery, a batch of 300,240 units of diphtheria serum, carried by the only useful emergency vehicle capable of the trip at the time.

If anybody knows of any stamps depicting the classic Miller-Meteor ambulances, please post them. Also, if there is a stamp with a Skoda 1203 ambulance depicted on it, I would like to see it, as it is the star of the Czechoslovakian television show Ambulance.

@parcelpostguy If I recall, in the film adaptation, there was supposed to be a train that would bring the medicine, but the line ended several miles away. I am doubtful the film is a historically accurate telling of the story.
