The US Army is the only branch that follows this unnecessary protocol. Air Force, Navy and Marine rescue choppers have dispensed with the Red Cross and come armed to the teeth, usually with multiple miniguns.

So why is the Army so bass-ackwards???
If the other units are already doing it the proper way, why allow your (our) people to die?? ::)

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

There's more truth to that one than any of us want to comment on, (outside of the confines of living in the field)..

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
