That gets more complex and gap-ish.

For example, in the British Army, they progress as
Pvt, Lance Cpl, Cpl, Sgt, Staff Sgt, WO 2nd, WO 1st.
The US However, adds sgt, staff sgt, sgt 1st class, 1st sgt, between 
the British Cpl and Sgt ranks with a US master sgt being equivalent 
to Sgt in the British army.
