There is no such rank as "First Class Sergeant". You have either Sergeant First Class, which is E7, or First Sergeant, which, along with Master Sergeant, is E8.
A platoon sergeant is someone who is responsible for the care and well-being of a platoon of soldiers. It is a description of a job. A Sergeant First Class is a pay grade (rank). It is also called E-7, and abbreviated SFC. Usually (but not always) the job of platoon sergeant is given to a soldier in the pay grade of Sergeant First Class, due to their experience and skill. It is possible to have a well-performing soldier of the previous rank (Staff Sergeant) doing the job of platoon sergeant, and it is also possible that a Sergeant First Class could be doing something other than leading a platoon (staff duty, for example).

The life blood of a US Army company is the squad leader, regardless of rank. The typical rank for a squad leader is Staff Sergeant (E-6). The squad leader is responsible for the training and care of all soldiers in the squad. While the platoon sergeant, first sergeant, platoon leader, and company commander all play important roles, the person who is responsible to ensure the work gets done is the squad leader.
The lozenge is simply a device to differentiate a First Sergeant from a Master Sergeant, Sergeant Major, etc.

The United States army consists of twelve ranks. They are, in order of rank, Private, Private First Class, Specialist, Corporal, Sergeant. Staff Sergeant, Sergeant First Class, Master Sergeant, First Sergeant, Sergeant Major, Command Sergeant Major, and Sergeant Major of the Army.
When a First Sergeant leaves, it'll either be because they've been relieved of duty, or are about to be promoted to Sergeant Major. Who replaces the First Sergeant depends on the availability. It may be a Master Sergeant transferred from a staff position, or it may be a Sergeant First Class who is about to be promoted to E-8. You won't find Master Sergeants in line companies - Master Sergeants are found in staff positions.
