Polish Army

In the Polish Army rank insignia system there are two grades of sergeant: Sier?ant (OR-6 in NATO code) and Starszy Sier?ant (OR-7). The rank first appeared in Henryk D?browski's Polish Legions in Italy in the late 18th century. Both ranks are used in the infantry, armoured forces, air force and cavalry. In the Polish Navy, the equivalent is Bosman (literally Boatswain), and in the artillery it is Bombardier or Ogniomistrz (literally Firemaster).
