Replacing crew members in Silent Hunter IV

Now grab a fresh crewman to replace the one you removed and drag him to the slot on the sub...be sure to pay attention to the crewmans skills and renown costs.
Hope this helps

And be sure not to grab the guy who you just gave the sack to. I accidentally did this before. I didn't realize it until I left port and was over 2000 nm away. I then looked over at the XO and asked " why is he still here?"

I haven't done that, but did, while moving too fast, picked up the wrong crew member and sacked that one. Be careful and make sure you have the right crew member.
