"The National Fire Brigade Monument has been in Schaarsbergen since 2012. There we reflect on the courage and decisiveness of the fire service colleagues who have died since 5 May 1945 while working for the fire service. Here we show each other the respect due to our deceased colleagues. A place to commemorate, but also to reflect and realize that we practice a beautiful and versatile, but also dangerous profession."
