Awarding medals with SH3 Commander?

GJO · 02-14-14, 05:22 AM

I agree with Steve in that Petty Officers in most navy services were the 'Sergeants' - experienced, hard and usually 'to the book' so it makes sense to have them all qualified. I am quite comfortable about awarding qualifications in SH3 Commander but I feel uneasy about using the programme to dish out medals - even though in RL the Kriegsmarine were fairly generous with these awards, especially early on.

In the game, I believe that it makes good sense to promote an experienced Matrosenhauptgefreiter to the rank of Bootsmann - especially as a replacement for a crew member that has been lost but I do not know if this would have happened in RL
