Thanks again Jacques for some brilliant pictures. I really think the Japanese system of a white flash for a rescue appliance, whilst keeping all others red is a good one. Easily distinguished by everybody, if only British Brigades could follow a similar regime instead of the plethora of stupid schemes we see today.
The white flash makes it look like something out of Starskey and Hutch! Far better for it to have a white front, and dayglo striping. Perhaps it should have whatever Nippon is for 'Rescue Tender' on the sides.
