Well, that was a bit of a downer.

Kinda having a moan I guess. I didn't start my career at the start of the war, I chose a May 42 starting to my career. And it just seems impossible a skipper would get the MOH after one patrol. It just doesn't seem realistic, but I'm aware the games medal awarding system is quite flakey.

My last career I had 5 patrols in a row where all I got was Bronze star after bronze star. this is my first MOH.

If you peek under the hood too long, you'll find hundreds of reasons to hate the game. It's better to focus on the parts of the game you like and enjoy it.
The fact that you get a different experience each time you play speaks to the depth coded into the game. That in itself is rare in gaming.

Next time you play a mission keep an angry squirrel taped to your genitals. If you get a Medal of Honor everyone would agree that you deserve it!
