John Stinger, age 18, at his desk at the England AFB newspaper "The Tiger Talk" |
John Stinger was stationed at England Air Force Base in 1956-1959 and was the cartoonist and feature writer for the base newspaper, The Tiger Talk.
His cartoon appeared weekly called “Stinger’s Stunner.”
John saved most of his cartoons from those Air Force days and would be happy to send copies to anyone who is interested.
