A nuclear engineer gets 'down and dirty' with the nuts and bolts of a system; a nuclear physicist works on all kind of 'what if' scenarios.

Why do the bubbleheads get all the recognition?!?!? Don't forget the glow-in-the-dark SWOs! Not sure if Mr. KR had to interview with Adm. Rickover to get into nuke school or if that was before his time. I'll have to ask him next time I see him.
