Gunnery sergeant

Gunnery sergeant (GySgt) is the seventh enlisted rank in the Federation Marine Corps and Bajoran Militia, just above staff sergeant and below master sergeant and first sergeant, and is a staff non-commissioned officer.

Gunnery sergeants are commonly referred to by the informal abbreviation "gunny." This nickname is usually regarded as a title of esteem and/or camaraderie, and is generally acceptable for use in all situations except formal and ceremonial ones. Use of the term by lower-ranking personnel, however, remains at the gunnery sergeant's discretion.
