And in real live, what was the normal length for a command of a submarine?
for SH4, if you can succeed on a consistent basis, and survive, your career can span from December 1941 to August 1945. 25 to 30 war patrols.

in real life, commanding officers (aka CO) who were successful and survived made 4 to 6 patrols depending on their age and the stress incurred during the 4 to 6 patrols. after that surviving Sub CO's went to all kinds of other billets: squadron staff, training billets, Pentagon, etc.
