3) Many adults don't understand the concept of using junior firefighters. even so, 14 is a very young age to be an active jr FF. I, personally, believe 16 should be the youngest to be on a department. but also remember that what the youngest age to join depends on the person.

I agree with the Doc here. My dept(who's far from doing things right for the most part) doesn't even let Jr's come on before 17. And they are still limited too what calls we call go on, after you do training.
