'''Sergeant''' is a military or [[police]] rank, generally associated with people who aren't commissioned officers. Commonly, sergeants are the immediate supervisors of the essentially unranked soldier or policeman. This fact is made particularly clear in [[UNIT]] stories, as when [[John Benton]] is shown leading ordinary privates in [[TV]]: ''[[The Mind of Evil]]'', or when the issue of rank plays an important subtextual role, like in [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Eye of the Giant]]''.
'''Sergeant''' or '''Sargeant''' ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Bullies (comic story)|Bullies]]'') was a military or [[police]] rank.
