The First Starfleet Submarine

I started my current career (About 50-60% realism, stock, not DID but I am usually honnest with duds, missed shots and bad approaches) at the earliest possible date, in an S-Boat, and traded up as they came. Stuck with the same crew thorough, just added new folks as needed.

It's now late 1944, and I'd say 50% + of my crewmembers are officers - At least two per compartment, except for the guns and DC crew.

Isn't there a limit to the number of officers you can have onboard? It's starting to feel like Star Trek, especially since the 1st watch Lieutnant's name's Kirk...

Also, when I get a medal after a patrol, it still refers to the first time I got it (IE, "The two war patrols of the USS Pike", when I've been on the Balao for four patrols) is that normal? And do the player character ever get promoted?

Do crew members ever get any medals except for the patrol star, wounded medal and submarine service medal?
