Hi!

I am not sure what OS you are using so my advice here could probably
be improved if you use the solution more suitable for your system.

If you just want to start the bacula-fd daemon using that init script
and see how it works you can modify this line:
 ARGS="-c /etc/bacula/${NAME}.conf"
so that it looks like this:
 ARGS="-c /etc/bacula/${NAME}.conf -u root -g root"

The content of the ARGS variable is later in the function do_start()
passed to the command which will execute the bacula-fd daemon.

After starting bacula-fd using that modified init script, bacula-fd
should run as root. You can check the process list as before to
ensure that.

Again, most systems support some procedure that can be used to
source (include) additional file with additional options and
variables.

I would suggest that you find the best way to supply additional
parameters to the init scripts on your system because modified
init scripts are likely to be overwritten during the update of
the related package.
