FAQs

How hard is it to become a gunnery sergeant? ›

To advance to the rank of gunnery sergeant, you need six years TIS and three years TIG. Gunnery sergeants usually serve at the company level, though they may also serve at battalion level or work with training units and recruiting stations as needed.
