    It was my understanding that when Battenburg is used on an emergency vehicle the accepted wisdom is Yellow and Blue for Gardai / Police, Yellow and Red for Fire and Rescue and Yellow and Green for Paramedic.

    Now, ignoring the fact that Dublin Fire Brigade operate ambulance services, in the link beneath there appears to be an ambulance with Yellow and Blue Battenburg.

    Be I right in what I am saying above?

    the bit on the top which says Emergency Ambulance is definitely HSE green but not the Battenburg. I have no doubt it is a HSE Ambulance but look beneath the window on the side door. It is blue.

    No its actually green, its just the way the light makes it appear blue, check the next ambulance you see driving past you or that you pass on the road.

    it is green, the flash on the camera always reflects a brighter version of the same colour, like the ole sam brown belts the gaurds use to wear years ago when they were in shirt and tie at a B.C.C. and the belt around their waist was the only reflective thing they had to stop others running them over, it always reflects the colour of the light that is directed at it, red blue white??
