If the recruiter is an active duty US Marine he can become any grade that he earns through hard work, recommendations from a commanding officer and length of service time. Marines start as private, pfc, lance corporal, corporal, sergeant, staff sergeant and then gunnery sergeant. And finally the highest ranks of enlisted men the Master Sergeant and First Sergeant
Gunnery Sergeant is pay grade E7, and the equivalent Army rank is Sergeant First Class.
A gunny sergeant is short for gunnery sergeant. A gunnery sergeant is a rank of the US Marine Corps. It is the seventh enlisted rank (E-7) right above a staff sergeant and right below a master sergeant.
A retired gunnery sergeant makes around 2,000 dollars every month. This is just the base pay not including disabilities.
SSG stands for Staff Sergeant. That is higher than a Sergeant. The next rank will be Gunnery Sergeant.

Gunnery Sergeant and Lance Corporal are names of ranks used by the US Marines. The Question was about the US Army.
No. You have ranks mixed up. Stars are given to officers and a Sergeant is given stripes. A gunnery sergeant is a Marine master sergeant or the same as a E9 in the Army. They are considered enlisted noncoms officer.
No - the Marine equivalent rank is Gunnery Sergeant.

I assume you are talking about E-8 and E-9 ranks. At E-8 you become either a First Sergeant or a Master Sergeant. If you take the First Sergeant route the next rank becomes Sergeant Major. If you take the Master Sergeant route the next rank becomes Master Gunnery Sergeant.
