| '''Master Sergeant''' is the eighth enlisted rank of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]], is a [[non-commissioned officer]]. It is equal in pay grade to [[First Sergeant]], although the two have different reponsibilities. Master Sergeant is equal to the rank of [[Senior Chief Petty Officer]] in the [[UNSC Navy]].

| | |
| Master Sergeants may also be referred to by the nickname of "Top". This usage is an informal one, however, and would not be used in an official or formal setting. Use of this nickname by Marines of subordinate rank is at the rank holder's discretion.

| ==First Sergeant vs. Master 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 First Sergeants have a general command status, while a Master Sergeant's role is as a provider of technical military leadership.
