The word “firefighter” was not used years ago.

I beg to differ.

"Firefighter" refers to one who battles a forest fire.

"Fireman" is a person who serves a municipality and who battles urban fires.

In fact, on 9/11, when I heard that “firefighter” were on the scene, I wondered how they got there from Colorado so fast.
