 In addition, the NI's investigations also exposed the deployment of "Ghazi" when it was indicated that there was no indication that "Ghazi's" crew had ever practiced with mines, and most of its crew including its commanding officer were relatively new to the submarine for the magnitude of this type of deployment.As oppose to the U.S. Navy service which had restricted to the personnel of 81, the "Ghazi" complement was about 93, the award, "Star of Courage", acknowledged that were there were 12 extra personnel aboard the boat at the time of its sinking.An increase in the sub's total complement would put a strain on the logistical capabilities of a patrol because it reduces its duration.
