In the Danish Defence, there are two senior sergeant ranks, Oversergent (lit. 'Upper/Senior sergeant') and Seniorsergent (lit. 'Senior sergeant'). However, the Danish Defence officially translates the rank with the equivalents in the British Armed Forces,[4] as such the ranks have different official translations depending on the branch.
