What is an E9 in the Army?

• A. Corporal
• B. Sergeant Major
• C. Lieutenant
• D. Captain

Answer: (B)

Enlisted pay grades designate levels, with E-9 being the highest enlisted rank in the Army. In the Army, E-9 includes ranks such as Sergeant Major, Command Sergeant Major, and Chief Master Sergeant of the Army. Among the options, Sergeant Major matches the E-9 level, making it the correct choice. Corporal is an E-4, while Lieutenant and Captain are commissioned officer ranks (not enlisted), so they are not E-9.
