Default Young Buna Career Advancement (Part 2)

Not sure if anyone can remember this thread about young Buna studying for his Chief Officer qualification:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...highlight=buna

He received official word today informing him he had passed but what I wasn't aware of neither until today is the fact that the above qualification covers not only Chief Officer but also the Master/Captain position...he has no further written exams to undertake for further career progression but must have a minimum of twelve months sea time in post Chief Officer qualification before he can sit his oral examination to become a Master/Captain.

His mom and I are obviously over the moon....well done James

Congratulations again, James. Now get back to sea and stop giving your old man a hard time - the constant proud grin from ear to ear must be hurting him.

We've not seen him so happy since Grant bought a round.
