''Maréchal-des-logis'' (literally translated as "marshal-of-lodgings") is a sub-officer rank used by some units of the French Armed Forces. It is traditionally a cavalry unit rank. There are three distinct ranks of ''maréchal des logis'', which are generally equivalents of sergeant ranks in English-speaking armies. * ''Maréchal des logis-chef'' (equivalent to ''sergent-chef''). This is a superior rank to ''maréchal des logis'' and wears three chevrons, gold or silver.〔The colour of the chevrons of the ''maréchal des logis'' depends on his unit; the vast majority of armoured cavalry units use silver, but a few of them, like the spahis, use gold.〕 * * * ''Maréchal des logis de carrière'' (equivalent to ''sergent''). Wears two chevrons. A ''maréchal des logis'' is shortened to "''margis''". * * * ''Maréchal des logis sous contrat''. Wears one chevron. This rank is increasingly uncommon in the French military since the end of conscription. Both ranks are roughly equivalent to a British or Commonwealth sergeant. The ''maréchal des logis-chef'' corresponds quite closely to the US use of the rank of staff sergeant. The rank of ''maréchal des logis'' is used by the armoured cavalry, the artillery, the ''materiel'', the commissary and the transport corps, all of the French Army, and by the ''''Gendarmerie Nationale''. ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maréchal-des-logis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
