I noticed the left reverse light is red - that is the fog light, yes?

Yes it's the fog light...!!!

Forgive my ignorance but here in America we don't have reflectors or fog lights in the back. If you put it in reverse, does 1 white light and 1 red light come on? Or is the red side just a reflector? Or is it a separate light and if it is, when does it come on? (I'm always interested in differences of other countries)

In Europe we need at least 1 rear fog light (red). This must be on the driver's side or in the middle. (or both sides)
When there's a fog light on the driver's side, there's 1 reverse light on the other side. When the fog light is in the middle or on both side, there are 2 reverse lights.
The rear fog light uses the same swith of the front fog light. You turn it 1 time for the front fogs, and you turn it a bit further for the front+rear fogs.
