Keep in mind that it is beta and these are just for test purposes.  Also, don't begrudge some silly ones that are there for fun.

I do like your rank reward suggestion though.  It shouldn't just be USAAF ranks, the rank rewarded should be based on who's unit the reward was earned in.

Luftwaffe ranks for German aircraft successes
Wehrmacht ranks for German vehicle successes
USN ranks for USN aircraft and boat successes
US Army ranks for US Army aircraft and vehicle successes
US Marine Corp ranks for US Marine Corp aircraft and vehicle successes
Regia Aeronautica ranks for Italian aircraft successes
FAF ranks for Brewster successes
RAF ranks for RAF successes
RN ranks for RN successes
VVS ranks for Russian aircraft successes
Red Army ranks for Russian vehicle successes
IJN ranks for Japanese navy successes
IJA ranks for Japanese army successes

It might be possible to select what rank you want an aircraft or tank to be scored in for those aircraft and tanks that were used by multiple nations.  The Spitfire Mk VIII, for example, might be scored as either RAF or USAAF.

This here is what I would like to see.

     Could it be possible that having achievements allows new players to show real progress in a game that has essentially an unheard of learning curve?
     And for the long time players...I've never shot down 4 B29's in a single sortie, I've never won the war with my troops, and I havent gotten three seconds air in my jeep. Sounds like unique and fun challenges to me.

Neither have I.  Every time I think about it, the wife insists that I let her out first...
