'''Sergeant Rock''' is a tough non-commissioned officer (NCO), usually serving in a position of leadership. The naval equivalent is the Bosun, which usually fills the same role on a ship.
 
Named for the [[DC Comics]] character who first appeared in 1958. Rock served in the European Theater of Operations, was known for keeping his head in the ugliest situations, and for [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner|growling a lot of gung-ho sound bites]]. His page is [[Sgt. Rock|here]].
 
'''Sergeant Rock''' is what [[The Neidermeyer]] dreams he is. However, '''Sergeant Rock''' differs from [[The Neidermeyer]] in that he may be a bully and a blowhard, but he gets the job done while ''never'' ordering his troops to do anything he would not be willing to do himself, and thus the troops respect him, while not necessarily being too fond of him personally.
 
If [[The Squad]] is only the size of a squad, he may be the man in charge. Otherwise, he's either helping [[Ensign Newbie]] learn the ropes, or making sure whatever [[Colonel Badass]] needs done ''gets'' done (sometimes both). Whatever the situation, you can be sure '''Sergeant Rock''' is right in the middle of the firefight, whatever the odds, and whatever ordnance is being tossed around.
 
Has a very, ''very'' high chance of being [[Made of Iron]].
