'''Sergeant Major''' is the ninth and highest enlisted rank of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] and is a [[non-commissioned officer]]. It is equal in pay grade to [[Master Gunnery Sergeant]], although the two have different responsibilities. Sergeant Major is equal to the rank of [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] in the [[UNSC Navy]]. Even though they are equal in rank Johnson still referred to John- 177 as "sir." This is most likely due to commanding presence of a Spartan among enlisted men. | |||
==Sergeant Major vs. Master Gunnery Sergeant== | |||
In their annual performance evaluations, eligible [[Gunnery Sergeant]]'s indicate whether they wish to be considered for promotion to [[Master Sergeant]] or [[First Sergeant]], and thus whether they enter the promotional track for Master Gunnery Sergeant or Sergeant Major. Once promoted, the promotional track is permanent; lateral movement between the two programs is not possible. | |||
One of the major differences between the two ranks is that Sergeant Majors have a general command status, while a Master Gunnery Sergeant's role involves providing technical military leadership. | |||
