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.

 

Review

Jay Claypool really manages to dive deep into his own past to allow the reader to evaluate their own past as well. It will have you really reflecting.

Very encouraging for those that feel like they are stuck in what is expected of them and not what they truly desire.
