promote them to higher ranks, if they are just normal petty officers you won't get more than half of the bar even with qualifications.
This game is driving me LOL! I suspected that might be the reason and had been trying to promote them both but always got knocked back with the message 'too inexperienced' in SH3 Commander, and this after 8 patrols! However, I've since done another patrol so have just opened up SH3 Commander and tried again after reading your message. First one - no joy, he is still too inexperienced. But the second one Well, he is buying the drinks in the club tonight as his promotion went through fine. He must be brighter than his chum as they have both done the same number of patrols. Thanks for the tip.
I don't know how long it took to get enough experience for a promotion, because normally I just try to give qualifications to the men with the highest rank, and I also spend some reknown at the start of the carreer for petty officers who are already fully promoted.
