Historically, the rank of sergeant was severely downgraded after Unification of the three services in 1968. An Army Sergeant before unification was generally employed in supervisory positions, such as the second in command of a platoon sized unit (ie an infantry Platoon Sergeant, or Troop Sergeant in an armoured unit). After unification he was downgraded in status to section commander, a job previously held by Corporals, and the former "Platoon/Troop Sergeant"s were replaced by "Platoon/Troop Warrant Officers."

France - See the article Ranks in the French Army
There are three sergeant ranks in France, although the most junior, contract sergeant, is rare now that conscription has been suspended. In general, the term "sergeant" is used indifferently for both contract sergeant and career sergeant. Contract sergeant is classified as the lowest sub-officer rank, the rank below being chief corporal. The ranks in the French Army : // The title of Maréchal de France is awarded as a distinction, rather than a rank. ...
 Career sergeant and Contract sergeant - Contract sergeant : Sergeant de contrat: One gold chevron. A rank used for junior sergeants, either conscripts or reservists. Junior to commonwealth sergeant but senior to commonwealth corporal.
- Career sergeant : Sergeant de carriere: Two gold chevrons. Normal sergeant rank, though normally directly recruited from civilian life into this rank, so the rank implies less experience than for a commonwealth sergeant. Normally simply referred to as sergeant, dropping the "de carriere". With long service, promotion to chief sergeant is automatic. Equivalent to a US sergeant. Roughly equivalent to, but slightly junior to, a commonwealth sergeant.
- Chief Sergeant : Sergeant-chef: Three gold chevrons. With long service, a sergeant's promotion to chief sergeant is automatic. This rank corresponds exactly to a US staff sergeant. There is no commonwealth equivalent, this rank lying between commonwealth staff sergeant and commonwealth sergeant. The rank may be said to be roughly equivalent to, but perhaps slightly superior to, a commonwealth sergeant. The next rank up is adjutant.
French sergeant ranks are used by the entire Air Force, and by traditionally dismounted arms of the French army. Traditionally mounted arms of the French Army do not use sergeant ranks, but instead use three equivalent ranks of "marshal of lodgings" (which are indicated by the same number of chevrons but in silver.)
