Yes but not quite.

The saying is "coming to a store near you soon"

Default I was looking through my log the other day and noticed
"Rank Increased"

Was wondering what that means?

The patch won't be available in stores, so I think Mihai is referring to the add-on.

For some reason I allways forget that the patch and the U-Boat add-on will be 2 different releases.

Yes, you can be promoted from LtCdr to Commander. The promotion is hardly noticable and only seen on your awards screen (medals) when you return from a patrol. Sorry, no big deal promotion ceremony, brass band or congratulations from the Fleet Commander.

The screen you get upon returning to base after a patrol where you are awarded a silver star, or whatever. Your promotion is only visible in the header (addressee, i.e. you). It only says: TO: Cdr. William Bligh
Its real easy to miss. There is NO message from BUPERS, although there certainly should be.

Something like this would be appropriate:

Do you remember SH1 were you would get e.g. Presidential Unit Citations etc. ? Would be really cool if they had implemented that.
