Can we lose the 2 top Chiefs, these ranks did not exist then, and gain a Lt. Commander and a Warrant? Probably not though, these are probably hard coded, but could the 2 senior Chiefs become Warrants 1 & 2, if there have to be 9 enlisted ranks?

The seaman ratings are not quite right either .

The medals:
Campaign Star look vaugly familiar but I don't have clue what it is.
The Submarine Service medal looks sort of like commendation
The Medal of Valor looks a lot like a Soviet Order of Glory
The Victory Cross looks most like a George Cross
The Wound Medal is simply a generic Purple Heart like thing without George.
The Patrol Star models a Silver Star pretty closely.

I wonder if some one official objected to real US decorations being used? I think this kind of thing is just childish.
