while sergeants are E-5s, Sergeant Majors are E-8 as I recall...

lesse... in the US Army E-1 is buck private, E-2 is private, E3 is lance
corporal, E-4
is corporal (or Specialist 4), E-5 is sergeant (or Spec 5), E-6 is staff
sergeant (or spec 6),
E-7 is platoon sergeant (or spec-7), E-8 is Sergeant Major, and E-9 is Command
Sergeant
Major (which are even rarer than 5 star officers as I recall). The marines do
it differently and
the E-7 for them is a gunnery sergeant I think. In the navy its various grades
of seaman and petty
officers. Air force uses mix of airmen levels and sergeants, technical
sergeants, etc.

Says the moron who's been posting threats all his life on the internet. The same
moron
who's had at least one brick thru the window. Too bad it wasn't a cocktail
instead. Bet
daddy would at least be able to get his money back from the fire insurance at
least.

Ah you must be a marine....

Army Marines
E-1 Recruit Recruit
E-2 Private Private
E-3 PFC Lance Cpl
E-4 Corporal Corporal (also SP4)
E-5 Sgt Sgt (also SP5)
E-6 SSgt SSgt
E-7 Sgt 1st Class Gunnery Sgt
E-8 Master Sgt Master Sgt
E-9 Sgt Major Sgt Major

I know the Army just appointed a new Sergeant Major of the Army about
three weeks ago.

First Sergeants (who can be E-7 and up), Command Segeant Majors (two
stars in the stripes) are for staff NCO's.

Navy Air Force
E-1 Seaman 3rd Airman 3rd (A3C)
E-2 Seaman 2nd Airman 2nd (A2C)
E-3 Seaman 1st Sr. Airman (A1C)
E-4 Petty Off 3rd Sgt
E-5 PO2 Tech Sgt
E-6 PO1 Staff Sgt
E-7 Chief PO Master Sgt
E-8 Senior Chief Senior Master Sgt
E-9 Master Chief Chief Master Sgt


I've had to deal with senior NCO's quite a bit. I lived with an E-8
(retired E-9) for about 25 years. Then I went to work for the Navy.

E-1 to E-3 in the Navy are called nubbies by the crows (petty
officers), because they don't get stripes, just nubs on their sleeves.
