The 'marine slang' page at

http://www.besco.de/min_seaman_slangs.htm

gives the following entry which supports the 'conventional' status of the
expression "donkey dick":

"Donkey Dick - (1) The nozzle of an inline proportioner in a firefighting
hoseline for AFFF. Note: this term is also used for literally dozens of
other objects in the naval service."
