Good day Marines.

I was reviewing the rank structure when one my friend's saw Master Gunnery Sergeant and asked what the symbol was in the middle. I never really thought about it because I know the rank but what is that symbol?

Thanks Marines!

It's good to know that I'm not the only one who remembered it as the one "with the pineapple." No disrespect meant there, correct me if you must.

It's probably going to get lost after it bounces around and deflates.

Sir, E-9 is Master Gunnery Sergeant, 3 stripes up 4 stripes down and a pineapple in the center sir! That is the diddy you will want to use for to gain extra credit with your drill instructors.
