No, it applies to quartering military troops during times of war and peace. In the early days of American history, mainly the Revolutionary War, it was a common practice for American households to hold as many as 15 British soldiers. The burden of cost was placed upon the homeowners with no assistance from the government.
So imagine trying to feed yourself, your spouse, and children and then as many as 15 soliders too, while not making very much money.
No. The Third Amendment does not apply in time of war, only in peacetime.

No, Firefighters actually fight fires, and Police Officers fight crime.However! -In some municipalities (towns) in America, these professions are performed by people that are cross-trained. In fact, one town that I know of has their city employees trained as Police, Fire, AND Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs are ambulance-riding first-responders) that work three 24-hour shifts per week. So for the first eight hours of their shift, they are Police Officers. The second eight hours they are Firefighters, and the third eight hours of their shift, they are EMTs. Then they get 24 hours off.
