Just wanted to let you know that the ranks Korporal and Stabskorporal (OR-4) are introduced by the Bundeswehr these days. With these 2 new ranks there´s a total of 8 different enlisted men ranks in the German armed forces. Korporal and Stabskorporal are no NCOs but will receive same payment as a Stabsunteroffizier. Here are some drawings showing the new Bundeswehr enlisted men rank structure.

The new rank insignia were authorized by presidential order on August, 30th 2021. I haven´t seen a real one yet but will post it, when available. Here´s a drawing of the new rank insignia for the battle dress (right shoulder loop). Korporal on the left, Stabskorporal on the right.

Are the new Korporal rank soldiers supervisors or is the rank just a new pay grade?  Some US Corporal ranks can exercise supervision in the absence of a NCO.
