It is an individual that has attended Signalman (SM) A-school in the United States Navy and also achieved the rank of E-4 (Petty Officer Third Class). When the rating (job) and rank are combined, one would use the term Signalman Third Class (SM3).

As a side note, the rating of Signalman (SM) was merged into Quartermasters (QM) in 2003.

Who was the first US Navy Signalman?

Not sure about male, but I found the first female Signalman was Elizabeth Nelson-Hein of Jasper, Alabama. The U.S. Navy disestablished the rating of Signalman in late 2003, reassigning visual communications duties to the Quartermaster rating. Signalmen were either absorbed into the Quartermaster rating, or allowed to switch to other job fields in the Navy. Many chose the Master-at-Arms rating, which expanded dramatically to meet the needs of the Navy in the War on Terror.
