the lesser known E9 rank is Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps.
Actually, a grade 5 private is Marine lingo for someone who countinually loses rank.
In the United States Marine Corps, the rarest E9 rank is Master Gunnery Sergeant (E9). This rank is the highest enlisted rank in the Marine Corps and is only achieved by a small percentage of enlisted Marines who have demonstrated exceptional leadership, expertise, and experience in their military career. Master Gunnery Sergeants typically serve in specialized roles and are considered subject matter experts in their field.
The 3rd rank achieved by an enlisted Marine in the US Marine Corps is the rank of Lance Corporal (LCpl). This rank is typically attained after serving for a specific period of time and meeting certain qualifications and requirements set by the Marine Corps.

Corporal. Note: An E3 in the Marine Corps is called a lance corporal; a rank which to the best of my knowledge only exists in the British Army and the US Marines. A lance corporal is the highest enlisted rank, and a corporal is the lowest non-commissioned officer rank.
