Zonder, I believe if one wishes to be treated as a prisoner of war under the Geneva Convention, one must be a part of an organized national army wearing a uniform. Guerilla or terrorist forces don't count. Of course, the Red Cross can be expected to put a very liberal interpretation upon it.

Also, of course, the Red Cross doesn't have very many divisions.
