That's great! The Germans had been using them since 1939, and suffered similar problems. So of course we had a "secret weapon".

I don't, but only because they didn't tell anybody they were disobeying orders, so you shouldn't get caught doing it. A better idea might be to be able to do it if you have a COB with high enough qualifications; but then people would just make sure they had a Chief with those quals, and again defeat the purpose.

So maybe you're right after all.
