The military blog, "This Aint Hell, but you could see it from here," has veteran writers that post about veteran interest issues. Exposing military fakers and embellishers is one of their favorite posting topics. Fakers and embellishers are people who didn't serve, but claim they did, or people who did serve, but embellish their service.
This blog's authors, and readers, send requests to the National Personal Records Center. This center is a central collection for veteran records. Anybody can request specific information about a veteran from this center. If the veteran's records can be found, the National Personal Records Center will send the requestor information that's releasable under the Freedom of Information Act.
Someone did just that on Donice Armstrong, stage name "Air Force Amy," based on her biographic information. The National Personnel Records Center came back empty handed. Usually, if you give them a birth place, or social security number, they'd be able to find a veteran's records. Air Force Amy/Donice Armstrong's bio, profiles, and websites, list most the data the National Personnel Records Center needs to find a veteran's record.
What were the results of a record search for Donice Armstrong (Air Force Amy)? The letter, posted on "This Aint Hell," showed that the National Personal Records Center wasn't able to find her record.
Some posters tried to bring up the point that her name could've been spelt wrong, or that Donice Armstrong wasn't her real name. In either case, her stories, and her attempts to counter findings that she didn't serve, fail the first hand experience test.
This Ain't Hell's blog entry on her is titled, "Donice Armstrong; Air Force Amy the Hooker Phony Airman."
Air Force Amy, aka Donice Armstrong, continues to Mislead with her phony veteran Stories:
This is a new claim from Air Force Amy, made on the heels of a series of blog posts calling her claims into question.
Air Force Amy's claimed Air Force MOS was security, something equivalent to an MP. If her claims were true, she would've been on post handing out tickets, guarding the gates, or doing other routine/administrative base security duties.
The military has other units that get tagged to carry out anti-terrorist operations.
Second, what a veteran specifically did before the military isn't always relevant for disability purposes. In this case, the fact that she was a "featured topless entertainer," prior to her claimed service wasn't going to factor into any disability decision. One of the factors that the VA would look at is the affect of the service related disability on specific types of employment.
Now, the military would've given her a disability rating had her knee injury, from military service, prevented her from performing her military duties... or from performing any other duties the military needed her to be able to do. The VA looks at a set of laws and rules, as well as the veteran's ability to do most occupations with that disability, when examining what rating and compensation a veteran gets.
In her prior claims, she served her full military contractual terms. She would've repeatedly mentioned that knee injury in her records. Then, she would've mentioned her knee injury during her ETS (out processing) physical.
She would've taken copies of her medical record to the VA, and filed a claim there after her ETS. If the VA determined that it was service connected... or a pre-existing condition that military service made worse, then they would've made a disability determination.
The VA bases this determination on what they see as her disability, applicable laws/regulations/rules, and her disability's impact on her future employability. If the VA labeled her as at least 10% "disabled," she would've received a monthly paycheck. She'd still receive it if they determine, after a re-examination, that she still had that disability. It'd be called "compensation" if the VA made that determination or a "medical retirement" check had she been medically retired from the Air Force.
If the military retired her because of that disability, then she could claim being medically retired. If the VA gave her a disability percentage, she'd get the "disabled veteran" Label.
Harold, one of her supporters, tries to jump in and prop her phony veteran claims up. Unfortunately for Harold, he discredits Air Force Amy's claims of his own military experience.
If she were wearing a leg cast, with a crutch, and in a jeep, this would have to be for a "photo op." Why? Here's the reality. If you got injured during a combat mission, to the point of needing a cast and a crutch, you would've been MEDEVAC or CASEVAC out of the AO. You would not be returned to the AO in that condition. There's a good chance that you'd be flown outside of the theater.
They teach many useful combat first aid tricks in the combat lifesaver's course. They don't teach you how to put leg casts on someone in the middle of a fire fight, or after one. Traditional crutches, and casting material, aren't part of the CLS kits/bags that are in the combat vehicles.
The best that we'd be able to do is to apply a field expedient splint to the broken leg, either on location, or at the casualty collection center...
She has claimed service from '85 to '89, or '86 to '90. Grenada was over, and Desert Shield hadn't begun yet as of her latest implied ETS date. The Air Force MOS that she claims she had, in simple terms, was "Base Security." From 1985 to 1990, the chances of her "being in the field engaging the enemy in a firefight" would've been minimal to none.
She can't claim war-time-injuries because none of her claimed dates of service qualifies for wartime service. She wouldn't have made any combat deployments during that time.
I've asked some Airmen, back in 2012, who held the MOS that Air Force Amy claimed she had, what runway "defense" involved. This is how one put it:
"...sitting in a cruiser, right next to the runway, drinking your latte..."
Not exactly the super secret squirrel training mission caliber that Air Force Amy made it out to be.
There may be courtesans who have served in the past. Air Force Amy doesn't appear to be one of them. You should be advertising based on her track record in the industry, not on the backs of real veterans.
Checkpoint Charlie was one of the crossing points between East and West Germany. The checkpoints were named after the military alphabet. This was checkpoint "C," or "Charlie" in military alphabet phonetics. During the Berlin crises, of 1961, American and Soviet tanks faced each other at that checkpoint. It ended peacefully.
Both, the evidence, as well as Donice Armstrong's (Air Force Amy) claims show that Air Force Amy didn't serve in the military.

"All truth be known, I'm actually a Disabled Veteran. I took a pretty severe knee injury (torn ligaments) during an Anti-Terrorist Operation. My previous occupation to the military is listed as "Featured Topless Entertainer" and since I can no longer perform my act on stage since the injury, I am disabled in the eyes of the military." -- Donice Armstrong (Air Force Amy)

"Oh, yessiree buddy, if anyone can get them out of me, it is "The Colonel", Harold that is. (Whom I must say is quite modest in his own military achievements) - Checkpoint Charlie - are you serious? Now that is action! Full on!" -- Donice Armstrong (Air Force Amy)
