E-7s
E-7s are called chief petty officers (Coast Guard and Navy), gunnery sergeants (Marines), master sergeants (Space Force or Air Force), and sergeants first class (Army). If they’ve been at that rank for two years or less, they make less, but if they’ve served for 26 years, they earn an incredibly high salary.
