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.

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).
