Default Crew Attributes/Skills/Perks/Traits?

In an interview Jürgen Oesten, he says that as a submarine commander the main and the most important thing is the crew, the training/experience/mentality of the crew.

And he also says that you have to know strength and weakness of every man.

So i was wondering how cool would it be to have something like a: Atrributes/Skills/Preks/Traits? for each man?

agreed

each crewman should have a skill set with a status bar indicating strengths in various areas of operation.

for example

Technical
Electrical
Gunnery
Navigation
Torpedo
Sonar
Radio
Radar
Medical

each crewman would be rated on a scale of 1 to 10 for example in various areas of skill sets

Thanks!

I thought maybe they could have some inborn abilities:

Strength, intelligence, endurance, resilience, self control, potential... post your idea!

Of course they could have skills like GoldenRivet said.

And maybe qualifications who would give a boost to those skills.

So long as these "perks" don't allow you to do things that you historically could not. I don't care how many war patrols he has been on, your chief should not be able to make a VIIC go 20 knots.
