Date Published: February 13, 2024

Publisher: MindStir Media

Meet Jay Claypool, and his alter ego Dixie Crystal. On his own from an early age, and embracing his sexuality and the performance art of drag, Jay recounts his early years as a nightclub performer, the 9-11 tragedy; and how it propelled him into a 20 plus years military career in the United States Air Force. A collection of stories that are hilarious, heartbreaking; and at times surreal, Gay AF is the autobiography of an entertainer who has persevered through the often-changing legal landscape and demanding service reorganizations within the DoD. Jay finds himself working within some of the most elite Air Force organizations, planning and executing unique no-fail missions; and Dixie Crystal is always along for the adventure.
