Magen David Adom
The first seeds of Magen David Adom in Israel were planted at a meeting held in Philadelphia in October 1918, attended by David Ben-Gurion, Golda Meir and Henrietta Szold. There was great concern that the Jewish Legion of Palestine, otherwise known as the 38th Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers of the British Army during World War I, who were fighting to liberate Eretz Yisrael from Turkish rule, needed medical help. A Magen David Adom organization was organized to aid both the Jewish Legion and the settlers in Palestine. It was disbanded at the end of the war.
Women of Valor - Henrietta Szold - American Zionist
Medical Unit
Forced to await the war's conclusion, the American Zionist Medical Unit (AZMU) embarked in 1918 with forty-five doctors and nurses and four hundred tons of supplies. The unit transformed medical care in Palestine, introducing equipment that had never been seen in the region before. http://jwa.org/womenofvalor/szold/american-zionist-medical-unit
