Qualifying your commissioned officers in deck gunnery or FlaK gunner substantially improves the performance of those weapons. The best solution, I find, is to qualify the Watch Officer with Gunnery and FlaK. I also like to ensure my Chief Engineer (Helmsman) is a qualified damage control specialist and machinist, and I like to get my Weapons Officer a damage control and torpedo qualification. The navigator generally gets a Watch or a Machinist course plus a medical course. Any extra officers aboard becomes a damage control/machinist/torpedo specialist to be shuffled around various compartments to boost their efficiency when needed.
