The out-of-air diver breathing the long hose goes in front.  Otherwise,
if the donating diver is in front and the OOA diver behind gets stuck
in the restriction or has to stop for some reason, the donating diver
in front may not know this and keep going thus pulling the regulator
out if the OOA diver's mouth.

Your question is *very* basic, and the answer should be known to anyone
with minimal cave training.  I assume you're not diving in caves.  If
you are, I suggest you get training before continuing.
