When I am called to duty, God, wherever flames may rage,
Give me the strength to save some life whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child before it is too late,
or save an older person from the horror of that fate.
Enable me to be alert and hear the weakest shout,
and quickly and efficiently to put the fire out.
I want to fill my calling and to give the best in me,
to guard my every neighbor and protect his property.
And if according to your plan I am to lose my life
Please bless with your protecting hand my children and my wife.
Dieser junge Kamerad hat das größte Opfer da gebracht welches uns möglich ist. Ob es sinnlos war oder nicht liegt nicht in unserem ermessen. Wir sollten ihn ehren wie wir derren gedenken die vor ihm gingen.
Mögt ihr alle immer heile zuhause ankommen!
Euer Freund und Bruder,
Taz
