This article needs an in-universe perspective.

It currently has too much of a real-world perspective. It may also be written primarily in the present tense. Please check the overall content against our Manual of Style, consult the talk page and revision history for any relevant notes, employ the past tense, and then remove this message.

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.

The following list is divided into broad types of sergeant, and then alphebetised within each of those types.

Police sergeants

Though most police sergeants seen in the DWU have been British, or at least from Earth, this section can include people who were in any civilian police force, on any planet.

Military sergeants
