The picture speaks for itself:
Something should be done about this...
The highest german commendation ever handed out during the war was the Knights Cross with golden oak leaves, swords and diamonds. This was handed out to Hans-Ulrich Rudel... and only him... I've gotten it on 7 out of 8 patrols.
I run at 80-90% realism and score 40k-80k per patrol...
All my promotions have come at their soonest opportunity, and I'm now the second highest ranking uboat commander in the Kriegsmarine... After 8 patrols!!!
The promotion/medal system needs to be tweaked, or maybe given a difficulty slider where you can choose between "Medals all around" and "Realistic" or something.
Just my opinion... I'm running out of room in my sub for all my Knight's crosses

Excellent post 
Although this thread I started earlier may refer a little to what you have said. I too have found the awarding of medals far too easy to come by.

Thanks Goose_Green, I didn't notice your post because I tried searching
for the word "medals", but that gave quite a few results... surprisingly... d'oh!... 
Well anyway, this problem with easy medals and promotions is ofcourse also a problem in American subs... It's just that those medals were fake when I played american, so I never figured out what was the highest commendation between patrol stars and campaign stars or what they were called. Now, I've installed the real medals mod, but only play german for the time being... well well

No problem yngvf 
I'm glad it's not just me that is experiencing quirky medal awards. The U Boat missions add on has simply uncovered the awarding process as a sham.
