'''Sergeant''' is the fifth enlisted rank (E-5) of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] and the [[UNSC Army]], and is a [[non-commissioned officer]]. It is equal to the rank of [[Petty Officer Second Class]] in the [[UNSC Navy]] and [[Staff Sergeant]] in the [[Air Force]]. Sergeants in the Army lead may lead teams of around 4 soldiers, while Marine Sgts. typically lead squads of about 12 Marines. Most Sergeants are found wearing the UNSC Military Cap rather than the [[CH252 Helmet]].


While Sergeant is a rank of its own, the title "Sergeant" is often used to refer to any of the enlisted ranks of the UNSC Marine Corps or Army which carry the title Sergeant:
'''Sergeant''', abbreviated to '''SGT''', is a Enlistment rank of E-5 in the [[United Nations Space Command]] [[Unified Ground Command]] (UNICOM) [[UNSC rank structure|rank structure]].

==Trivia==
Many Sergeants in the games are shown wearing caps instead of the [[CH252 helmet]] their subordinates wear. While wearing this cap is useful for identification, it should cost the Sergeants the loss of their [[Heads-up display]], making aiming and long distance communication more difficult. How Sergeants who wear a cap get around this setback is never explained.
