What was Forrest Gump's rank in the movie?

he was a sgt

//The above answer is partially incorrect. In the scene where Forrest gets his discharge papers, the sergeant calls him PFC, meaning private first class. Serving on tour in Vietnam would have automatically made him SP4, one rank above PFC. His uniform while in Washington DC shows three stripes which depicts the rank of sergeant, a rank he could not have earned after discharge. Gump was awarded the Medal of Honor which gives him an automatic promtion to E-5, a rank not dependant on active enlistment. E-5 is 'enlisted' and 5 means 'sergeant'. So his sergeant rank was awarded after discharge and was due to his Congressional Medal of Honor, not an earned position while in active duty*.//

*Gump's Medal of Honor would put him at a higher pay scale than his SP4 ranking salary and certain privileges including a better retirement.
