If as a federal employee and a retired GI I file bankrupcy will I or can I be fired from my federal job and lose my pension?

No, you cannot be fired for filing bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is a Constitutionally protected right. It does not matter if you are a public or private employee. Your employer cannot fire you simply for filing for bankruptcy.   This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature.
