I am interested in fire science. Are there any professionals willing to share their experience on how they became a firefighter?

My grandfather was chief fire inspector for the state of Hawaii. He was really good at what he did. I heard most of the stories from my father, who would tag along during the days of his youth. My father even regretted not going into the fire department. I've heard about the benefits in working for the state. But I have other questions. How much are the pensions? What is a good age for retirement? Does firefighting count as a state or federal job? What are the physical training requirements for firefighting? Sorry for all the basic questions but my father doesn't like to talk much about the actual job because he's sort of scared? #firefighting #fire-investigator #department #fire-fighter
