A skerry is a small rocky island, usually defined to be too small for habitation. It may simply be a rocky reef. The term skerry is derived from the Old Norse sker, which means a rock in the sea.... The island fringe of Norway is such a group of glacially formed skerries(called a skjærgård) ;many of the cross fjords are so arranged that they parallel the coast and provide a protected channel behind an almost unbroken succession of mountainous islands and skerries.  7, record 1, English, - skerry%20guard

An international humanitarian agency organized after the battle of Solferino(1859), concerned in peacetime with health and safety and in wartime with caring for wounded and the prevention and alleviation of human suffering generally. It has now a world-wide organization, based in Geneva, together with national societies. The first multilateral agreement on the Red Cross, the Geneva Convention of 1964, committed signatory governments to care for wounded, both friend and foe, and this was later revised and extended to warfare at sea(1907), prisoners of war(1929), and civilians in wartime(1949).  2, record 3, English, - International%20Red%20Cross
