Bill Mauldin
William Henry Mauldin (; October 29, 1921 – January 22, 2003) was an American editorial cartoonist who won two Pulitzer Prizes for his work. He was most famous for his World War II cartoons depicting American soldiers, as represented by the archetypal characters Willie and Joe, two weary and bedraggled infantry troopers who stoically endure the difficulties and dangers of duty in the field. His cartoons were popular with soldiers throughout Europe, and with civilians in the United States as well. However, his second Pulitzer Prize was for a cartoon published in 1958, and possibly his best-known cartoon was after the Kennedy assassination. Early life Mauldin was born in Mountain Park, New Mexico, into a family with a tradition of military service. His father, Sidney Albert Mauldin (né Bissell, but adopted after being orphaned) served as an artilleryman in World War I. Bill's grandfather by way of his father's adoption, for whom Bill was named, had been a civilian scout in t ...

Alamogordo High School is a public high school in Alamogordo, New Mexico. It is a part of Alamogordo Public Schools. History Alamogordo High was established in 1919 in a 13–classroom facility made of brick, which had two floors. Clippingfrom Newspapers.com. In 1949 the high school admitted its first student with African descent, who was mixed African/German American, just to play sports, although he had to take classes at the all-black Delaware School for Negro Children. When the personnel at Holloman Air Force Base asked for the school district to completely desegregate for the benefit of its black employees, the school system did so.
