== John Taschner == 

 John Taschner got a US Navy award in the 1980s for using tungsten instead of DU.... he advised that DU would lead to so many PR problems that the advantage was not worth the cost. Prior to coming to Los Alamos National Laboratory, John was Deputy Director of the Navy’s Radiological Controls Program Office in Washington, D.C., and has held numerous key health physics management positions with the U.S. Navy and the U. S. Air Force. Over the past thirty years, John has served on several Radiation Protection Standards Committees. Since 1992, John has been the Vice Chairman of the American National Standards Institute’s N43 Committee, which writes radiation safety standards for non-medical radiation producing equipment. He has been a member of the Health Physics Society since 1958 and is a member of the American Academy of Health Physics. John earned his M.S. in radiation biophysics from the University of Kansas in 1966 and, in 1973, received his certification in Health Physics by the American Board of Health Physics. 

 I think that is notable enough that he should have his own article.
