A cadet firefighter can mean different things in different departments.

In some departments, it means that it is a new firefighter undergoing training. If this is the case, then the firefighter is usually restricted to training environments.

In other departments, it can mean that the person is under the legal age to be considered a firefighter with the department. Each department has their own set of procedures for these people. Some cadets are limited to training only, while some are actually used on fire scenes for many different things (fetching tools for the firefighters, assisting with hydrants, assisting with traffic control, etc.).

The best way to find out what a cadet firefighter is and what they do with your local fire department is to contact them and ask them.

How old do you have to be to be a volunteer firefighter?

Usually, you must be 18 and older to become a firefighter. However, some volunteer departments have a "Cadet" or "Trainee" program, allowing people as young as 16 to apply. Cadets are restricted in what they can do for the department, and usually cannot enter burning buildings, use saws, etc until they turn 18 and pass their Firefighter I course.
