I am not boasting here so please don't think that I am. I am simply adding a comment.

I am playing the game with very low realism settings (I want to have fun sinking ships, not have a coronary during each mission) and received four CMOH in my first career!

I would suggest therefore that medals awarded are also tied in to realism settings and lightweights like me will get a load of medals at the end of every mission, whereas hardcore players will get awards based on realistic wartime settings. Mind you, the US military have always seemed to be very medal happy anyway, not like here in the UK where you pretty much have to be sent home in an A4 envelope, after selflessly saving a dozen of your comrades in arms, to get the highest of awards.
