smoke-eater
Hose-wielding responder
A smoke-eater is slang for a firefighter—someone who charges into burning buildings where others flee.
The term evokes the hazardous conditions firefighters endure, breathing smoke and heat.
The smoke-eaters arrived within minutes of the alarm.
The word carries admiration for the profession's toughness and bravery.
