#OnThisDay, 21 Mar 1945, Hannie Schaft, an active member of the Dutch resistance known as "the girl with the red hair", was arrested at a German checkpoint in Haarlem.

She was later executed, allegedly saying "I shoot better" after the first attempt to shoot her missed.

@CarveHerName - Hannie Schaft; Rest in peace for being a Hero for your country.

Elle n'avait pas encore 25 ans ...
@CarveHerName I don’t like using the word hero often because it’s overdone to the point that it devalues it. Hannie Schaft is a hero for all of us.
@CarveHerName i wanna print this out and put it above my bed and do that for every day of the year with all shero’s that have passed to remember them and honor them
