Extract

The General Navigation Company of Lake Léman in Lausanne has honoured the work of the Red Cross by naming its newest vessel after the author of A Memory of Solferino. The Company chose the date of the Centenary of the foundation of the ICRC for the naming of the boat, and a ceremony took place at Ouchy shipyard on February 17, 1963, before a large crowd.
