hoseman
Water line handler
A hoseman is a firefighter responsible for handling hoses during firefighting operations.
The term appears in historical and formal contexts, particularly in fire department rankings and job titles: The hoseman connected the line to the hydrant.
In industrial settings, a hoseman may operate hoses for other purposes—washing, pumping, or transferring materials.
