'''Staff Sergeant''' is the sixth enlisted rank of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] and the [[UNSC Army]], and the fifth enlisted rank in the [[UNSC Air Force]]. It is a [[staff non-commissioned officer]] rank. The rank insignia is represented by three gold "chevrons" over one "rocker" and four white "stripes" for the Air Force.<ref>'''[[Contact Harvest]]''', page 47</ref>
 
 
 
Staff Sergeants typically command [[squad]]s of 9 - 11 [[Marine]]s or [[UNSC Army|Army Infantry]], although they may be selected to become "[[Platoon]] Sergeants", which aid the platoon commander. [[Avery Johnson]] and [[Nolan Byrne]] were platoon leaders on [[Harvest]], and were tasked with training a [[Colonial Militia]], with each responsible for a platoon-sized group of men. Although a bit different from the other services, it is the Air Force's first non-commissioned officer rank as well as the first rank to which promotion is on a competitive basis.
