I'm just 19 years old right now and I only have high school degree but I master several Martial Arts: Karate, Savate,... and I have lots of practical skill and experience in Street-Fighting....
To where should I apply? The Department of Justice? What qualifications needed to become an agent? Will I ever have a chance to become an agent? Is being an agent really, REALLY tough? I want to get involved in action (field agent), not just being staff or secretary (paperwork agent) here....

Hold on there Wildman!
You better have a degree to get on the FBI agent list.
Believe it or not, the FBI recruits heavily for people with accounting degrees, foreign language skills (esp. Arabic now), and law degrees.
It's not all shoot 'em up and kick their butts nowadays.
In fact, if you do your job extra carefully, you will have very few punch-fests and bang, bang, OK Corral shootouts.
You can usually tell the length of service by how bad somebody wants to "fight and kick ***!". The old-timers will do it, but you gotta be really wanting it to get it from most of them.
Slow down, don't talk a lot about getting trigger time, or smashing faces. Build a reputation as a mature, responsible, honest and squared away person, and they'll be glad to have you.

Current requirements are that you must have a bachelors degree is some field before you can apply. Call their recruiting section and they will give you all the details.The thing with government jobs is that you can't dictate where you want to work, they put you where they want you.

If you don't want to do paper work in any kind of police work may you consider being a tail gunner job on a garbage truck. FBI requires a college degree in accounting,law, prior police or military experience.
