So really, the hardest one is HW Guy.
Besides, if we didn't, all people are going to be saying is stuff like:
"What does [Demoman] mean?"
And whatever that other person would say, that's what it should be named.

Mabye the HW Guy could have the translated word "Support Weapons"?
Although that redirects to anti-tank and artillery stuff on wikipedia.
Really the only thing close would be something like "Machine Gunner"
