I would tend to follow the higher numbers as war-time complements are higher than peace-time numbers.

As to the breakdown to Lt.s, Ensigns, Warrent Officers, CPOs, Petty Officers, and seamen, who knows. I'd imagine the CO had some input on it.

I'd say take your best guess and put it down to Captain's discretion.

It seems to have complete crew records for the men lost on the Harder. It would take some work but you could count each crewman's rank/rate and get an example crew organization.
