Typically, in an Army combat arms unit, a Sergeant will lead a fire team of four men (including themselves). They may be tasked to lead a squad if they're eligible for promotion to Staff Sergeant (or if there are no Staff Sergeants to fill the position), which is typically nine personnel (including themselves), but may be more, dependent on the unit.
