👉 Sergeantry is a term used in the United States military to describe a specific type of soldier who demonstrates high levels of loyalty, dedication, and bravery. This term was introduced by General Dwight D. Eisenhower during World War II when he described his experiences as a sergeant in the Army Air Forces (AAF) as a "heroic act," rather than just an action. The term was later adapted to apply more broadly to all types of soldiers who have demonstrated exceptional loyalty, dedication, and bravery.
