The term "top" when referring to a US Army First Sergeant is derived from the phrase "top sergeant." This phrase likely originated from the idea that the First Sergeant holds a position of high authority and responsibility within the unit, often serving as the senior non-commissioned officer (NCO) and advisor to the commanding officer. The use of "top" is a colloquialism that has become synonymous with the role of a First Sergeant in the army.

With just a GED or High School Diploma, you won't be able to become a commissioned officer - that requires a college degree. Enlisted and Warrant Officer positions are available, at least in theory, to persons who only have a diploma. However, when consideration for promotion comes about, it's a points system for E5 (Sergeant) and E6 (Staff Sergeant). E7 (Sergeant First Class) and higher, and Warrant Officers will be reviewed and the determination will be made about their promotion based on a number of factors, which include the completion of military schools, overall displayed aptitude, service record, and educational advances. If you enlist into the Army and don't take advantage of the opportunities to seek out higher education during the time you're in, it's going to put you at a serious disadvantage when the time comes for promotion beyond E5 or Warrant Officer Candidacy Selection.
You'd have to get your GED first.
Pay is based on rank/grade. Some occupations may have certain allowances (such as being on active jump status), but, at base level, a Sergeant who drives a truck doesn't make any more than a Sergeant in the infantry, and vice versa.
In the United States, ranks in the army are numerous, and where one is ranked can depend upon a variety of factors. Those who enlist in the army when they are 18, and who do not have officer training begin with few opportunities to command others. In fact, the first of the ranks in the army is Private E-1, usually assigned to those in basic training. Ranks in the army can also depend upon years served, promotions, extraordinary service and continuing education. Ranks in the army establish a chain of command and serve as a pay scale. The highest of the ranks in the army, General of the Army, has been held by only a few people and has been a vacant position for numerous years. Also, there is distinction in the ranks of the army between commissioned officers and non-commissioned ranks. While many non-commissioned officers, called warrant officers, as well as enlisted soldiers can have control of other soldiers, commissioned officers hold command. One can become a commissioned officer in the army by one of four ways: through the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), Officer Candidate School (OCS), the United States Military Academy at West Point, or an officer training program for adults who have previously earned a degree. The most basic difference with a commissioned officer is that he or she has earned a degree and undergoes additional leadership training. Generally, a commissioned officer is commissioned and recognized by the US Senate. Positions like general, colonel and captain all are commissioned status. A subset of ranks in the army is those given to warrant officers. Warrant officers tend to have specialized knowledge, either from army training or college education in certain fields. They may be expert scientists, or have particular knowledge in a rare field. They can command those with a lower rank, and are often considered equivalent to many of the lowest ranks in the army of commissioned officers. However, the only time a warrant officer is commissioned is if he or she becomes Chief Warrant Officer. The following are the ranks in the army of commissioned officers from highest to low: * General of the Army * General (GEN) * Lieutenant General (LTG) * Major General (MG) * Brigadier General (BG) * Colonel (COL) * Lieutenant Colonel (LTC) * Major (MAJ) * Captain (CPT) * First Lieutenant (1LT) * Second Lieutenant (2LT) Those who serve in a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC), as on a college campus may be given the rank of cadet or officer candidate. When they enlist after completing college, they almost always are given the lowest of the commissioned ranks in the army, Second Lieutenant. However, those who have specialized knowledge may instead be assigned ranks in the office that are Warrant Officer Ranks. Warrant Officer ranks in the army are the following, listed from high to low: * Chief Warrant Officer 5 (CW5) * Chief Warrant Officer 4 (CW4) * Chief Warrant Officer 3 (CW3) * Chief Warrant Officer 2 (CW2) * Warrant Officer 1 (W01) Those who enlist without a commission, and without a college degree begin their careers as privates. Non-commissioned ranks in the army are listed as follows from high to low: * Sergeant Major of the Army * Command Sergeant Major (CSM) * Sergeant Major (SGM) * First Sergeant (1SG) * Master Sergeant (MSG) * Sergeant First Class (SFC) * Staff Sergeant (SSG) * Sergeant (SGT) * Corporal (CPL) * Specialist (SPC) * Private First Class (PFC) * Private E2 (PVT2) * Private E1 (PVT)
