- Postcard featuring a color illustration of a nurse taking care of a patient on the ground next to an ambulance. The patient is lying on top of a blanket, and he is wearing striped clothing. His head and knee are bandaged, and he is holding one hand up to his head. The nurse is wearing a black helmet, a white apron, and white cuffs. On the apron there is a Maltese cross. The nurse is holding the leg of the patient that has not been bandaged. On the ground next to the patient there is a black first aid kit, which also has a Maltese cross on it, along with a roll of bandages, some scissors, and another box. The ambulance is parked perpendicular to the patient and has its headlights on. In the top, left corner of the illustration there is some rubble from a damaged building, and in the top, right corner there is a silhouette of a woman.
