You have to be 18 to be able to go into an actual structure fire. However, you can join at the age of 13 at a lot of departments, and are just considered a junior firefighter or cadet. Most fire stations around me say that you have to be 16 to be junior. But you to go into a fire you have to be 18
This question is difficult to answer due to there being no real definition of what you need to be a "firefighter." However, commonly accepted is the idea that a true firefighter must have Fire Fighter 1 certification. This course takes on average 150 hours, which can be spread over the course of one or two months, or possibly broken up into sections. This all varies depending on your location.
In addition, most firefighters will continue their training. Courses such as Fire Fighter 2, Emergency Medical Technician, Vehicle Rescue, Fire Officer, and many more are offered to firefighters. Many firefighters continue taking courses their entire career to keep their skills up to date, and to expand upon their knowledge and abilities.
All fire departments can set their own hiring requirements, but many (especially rural and volunteer) departments will not require any schooling beyond high school. Some fire departments will hire untrained individuals, then train them.
Education and training. Most fire fighters have a high school diploma, however, the completion of community college courses, or in some cases, an associate degree, in fire science may improve an applicant's chances for a job. A number of colleges and universities offer courses leading to 2- or 4-year degrees in fire engineering or fire science. In recent years, an increasing proportion of new fire fighters have had some education after high school.

Of course as long as your fit. A fire fighter has to be able to carry the weight of their own suit and equipment which can weight aprox 75 pounds. So if you can do that and are fit enough to run, stay alert and have a good respirator system a woman can pass

I was fire fighter during the nineteen seventies, for both the California Department of Forestry, and the US Forest Service. The first fiire shelters, or aluminized fire tents were issued in 1978, and 1979. It was requirement to have one on your belt or you could not be on the fireline.
it takes weeks or even months
115 minutes.
It could only fire for 6 seconds per burst, so as not to overheat the barrels. I believe in most P-51 s each gun had about 360 rounds.
At unrestricted speed, many fighters could do that in less than an hour.
i guess it would just become really warm or catch on fire or something.
