On the other hand there is no such thing as an unqualified petty officer. The very nature of achieving that rating means that you have learned your job. I use SH3C to assign quals to every PO, as was the case in real life.

Still today in the Navy you get constant transfers. But when you transfer a medic out, you dont get a gunner in return. Thats what I mean about commander being "dumb" with the transfers.
To agree with Snestorm, were PO's who are not qualified are the same has a seaman. I am sure that even in those days when you were a PO, you were qualified in something...
But indeed I do use commander to qualify them has soon has I get them at the start of my carreers.
