Notes:
- when not inferable from uboat.net's information, Oberleutnant zur See was used as standard commander's rank.
- ships sunk by mine or captured weren't considered
- ships damaged and warship tonnages were considered as "normal" tonnage
Comments:
Maybe we should apply progressively wider tonnage ranges for higher rankings
