https://nypost.com/2019/03/29/springsteens-son-no-42-on-list-to-become-jersey-city-firefighter/"Sam Springsteen, son of famed musicians Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa Springsteen, is ranked 42 out of 961 people who took the Jersey City Fire Departments civil service exam, records show, a number that could be high enough to get him into the Hudson River towns next Bravest class.
Sources previously told The Jersey Journal the city plans to send 60 of the exams top scorers to training.
The son of the Im on Fire singer was a volunteer at the Colts Neck Fire Department in January 2014 after graduating from the Monmouth County Fire Academy, according to NJ.com."
Bruce and Patti must be so proud.
