That is a good point here in the RN we are running low on submarineers apparently (dont know if its true or not ramius will probably know) but if we kept doing that to our skippers then no sub would be able to go to sea dont forget we have what 12 subs, although america can afford to loose a few along the way at this rate they wont be able to sustain the loss which means more and more incompetant officers are drafted to a command inexperianced which causes more and more problems and accidents and its just a cycle.
If i was an employer about to employ a captain to command one of my new boats and i had a guy with a 20 year unblemished record but not paper work qualified, and a 28 year old fresh from sub school with no experiance in command and certificates coming out of thier ear holes i personaly would choose the older guy simply because he has been there done that. Of corse its the other way round now days.
