Information on back side of plaque:
When I'm called to duty God wherever flames may rage give me strength to save a life whatever be its age.   Help me to 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 to 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 neighbor and protect his property.   And it according to your will I have to lose my life, bless with your protecting hand my children and my wife.
