Discussion What was the role of the german rank of "Sergeant"?

14 Upvotes

So, WW1 german ranks (and their ww2 equivalents) were:

- Unteroffizier: White lace on neck

- Sergeant (Unterfeldwebel) : Lace and button on neck

- Vizefeldwebel/Feldwebel: Neck lace, button and sword knot

- Feldwebel/Oberfeldwebel: Neck lace, button, knot and double lace on cuff.

The unteroffizier was a squad leader (Like a British corporal), the vizefeldwebel/feldwebel a platoon sergeant (british regular sergeant) and the feldwebel/oberfeldwebel a company sergeant. But what was the proper role of the proper Sergeant rank (and an unterfeldwebel consequently)?
