That's one of many little discrepencies I'm working on trying to correct. The basic sub war badge wasn't authorized until 13 October 1939. "The badge can be presented to all officers, NCO's, and crew members who server on submarines directed against the enemy, and who prove themselves on two or more sorties against the enemy. In case of a wound sustained during the sortie, the number of sorties required may be waived. The decision arriving at the determination for award of the badge rests with the submarine commander" - taken from the 'Introduction of of the submarine war badge 1939' from Raeder, Grand Admiral.

One frustrating aspect of this award as it stands is that you get awarded the war badge with diamonds, which wasn't instituted until later in the war, and in order to qualify you had to already hold a RK with Oak Leaves to get the one with diamonds. Jaesen's done a great job of fixing these details in SHC, fixing them ingame for your Kaleun is a far more difficult task for me to tackle
I know what you mean...ehehehe Only once, I manage to do a real career lengh and received the awards right. The common fault is receving the u-boat front badge always before late 44!
But I don't mind I did my post to give an idea about Murr44 problem!
