Congrats and good hunting!

Regarding the crew qualifications, you can always set them manually by editing the 'My Documents\SH3\data\cfg\Careers\[PlayerName]\[SaveName]\crew_config_xx.cfg files'.

The default should look something like this:

[CREW_MEMBER_0]
Name=Arthur Kopp
Index=5
NrComp=0
Type=2
Grad=7
Renown=1001.000000
Patrols=0
Morale=0.800000
Fatigue=0.000000
HealthStatus=0
HitPoints=15.000000
Experience=400
Rank=11
NrQual=1
Qualification0=0
SpecialAbility=-1
MedalsInx0=-1
MedalsCant0=-1
MedalsInx1=-1
MedalsCant1=-1
MedalsInx2=-1
MedalsCant2=-1
MedalsInx3=-1
MedalsInx4=-1
MedalsInx5=-1
MedalsInx6=-1
MedalsInx7=-1
MedalsInx8=-1
HeadIdx=1
HeadTgaIdx=0
BodyIdx=0
BodyTgaIdx=0
HasHelmet=Yes
HelmetIdx=0
HelmetTgaIdx=0
VoiceIdx=1

*******

The two key entries are:

NrQual=1
Qualification0=0

Officers can have up to three qualifications while the game only recognizes one for PO's. Qualifications are as follows:

0 = Watch
1 = Gunner
2 = Flak
3 = Sonar
4 = Helms
5 = Machine
6 = Torpedo
7 = Medic
8 = Repair

Qualification0=5 means the first qualification is Machine.
Qualification1=8 means the second qualification is Repair.

Also, (for two qualifications) be sure to set "NrQual=2", or "NrQual=3" for 3.
