The Only thing thats an issue for me is crew experience. All WWII sub CO's did only 4-5 patrols as CO, (a few did more after a break) however they did another 2-3 as XO and who knows how many as a Junior Officer? Same thing with the crew, at least 50% were seasoned vets. So ending the career after 5-6 patrols makes sense because by that 5th patrol you probably have been at sea for 10+. I just dont like that it takes 3-4 patrols to get a tough experienced crew.
Just a comment.
