In A&E’s ‘Secrets of the Bunny Ranch,’ the primary focus is on the shady dealings and activities that went on behind Nevada’s Moonlite Bunny Ranch brothel, which was owned by Dennis Hof. Several sex workers associated with the brothel came forward and talked about the kind of financial compensation and dehumanizing work environment Dennis used to provide to his employees. One of the sex workers and former employees of the Bunny Ranch brothel was Deanne Salinger, AKA Air Force Amy, who spoke up about the humiliation in detail.
Air Force Amy Had a Long Career in the Force Before Becoming a Sex Worker
Growing up in rural Ohio, Deanne Salinger, who is popularly known as Air Force Amy, left her home at a very early age. While hitchhiking around the nation, she became interested in joining the army. Her sheer determination allowed her to enlist in the US Air Force, where she served as an Air Base Ground Defense Instructor and an Anti -Terrorism Specialist. During her stint in the Air Force, she also reportedly worked with the Office of Special Investigations, Army Special Forces, the Diplomatic Security Service, and the Navy Seals.
As a testimony to her impressive achievements, she has several awards and medals to her name, including Meritorious Service Medal, S.P. of the Year, Woman of the Year, Airman of the Year, and John Levitow Award. She also served as an instructor in the Philippines. After a few years, when her commander didn’t give her a reenlistment bonus, she parted ways with the Air Force and began working as a sex worker at the Chicken Ranch brothel in Nevada in February 1990. Over the following decade, she also worked at other legal brothels, such as Cherry Patch Ranch, Sheri’s Ranch, the Kit Kat Guest Ranch, the Old Bridge Ranch, the Sagebrush Ranch, and Mustang Ranch.
It was in 2000 when she signed for the Moonlite Bunny Ranch and became a sensation. Then, she came up with the name “Air Force Amy,” given her former US Air Force career. Amy also convinced the owner of Bunny Ranch, Dennis Hof, to grant her a special promotion that allowed her to provide free sex to soldiers. Although she was quite popular among her clientele, she catapulted to fame when she became one of the sex workers featured in several seasons of HBO’s ‘Cathouse.’ Besides that, Amy also made an appearance in BBC’s ‘The Brothel’ and 2005 documentary titled ‘Pornstar Pets.’
Air Force Amy Has Several Certifications to Her Name
Air Force Amy has also been featured in various magazines, including Playboy Magazine, The New Yorker, Strip LV Magazine, and more. Throughout her decades-long sex working career, she has earned many awards and accolades, such as Bunny of the Year, Best Legal Prostitute by the Reno News and Review, Most Outrageous Guest in 2001 by the Jenny Jones Show, etc. The Central Texas College graduate has also studied to earn several certifications and formal degrees.
From 2012 to 2016, she attended the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality (IASHS), where she also served as a Curator of Collections for a while. Apart from being an active sex worker, she is also a Certified Clinical Sexologist, Certified Loveologist, Certified Erotic Hypnotherapist, and Certified in Sexual Attitude Reassessment. In order to support her lifestyle, she also posts adult content on her OnlyFans account and sells merchandise on her namesake website.
Air Force Amy Has a Wide Range of Hobbies and Interests
Deanne Salinger still popularly goes by the name Air Force Amy. While the scars of her past still haunt her at times, she has done her best to move forward and heal, one step at a time. Over the past two decades, she has strived to reclaim her life and is now building a bright future with the help and support of those who love her. With an ever-increasing fan following, she continues to grow her digital presence by keeping her admirers updated on her life events via her social media profiles. She is a multifaceted personality, with an interest in wide-ranging topics such as writing, history, fashion photography, travel, fitness, luxury-living, and human sexuality. A history buff, she loves to watch documentaries on the History Channel and National Geographic TV.
Amy satisfies her craving for theatrical entertainment by checking out Broadway and Cirque du Soleil shows. Amy enjoys riding on her Side-by-Side vehicles (SxS) and All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs). As of today, she is focused on furthering her career as a content creator and developing her namesake website. She is quite committed to charitable causes and frequently donates to organisations that aid Veterans and Military personnel. She is also a staunch supporter of alliances and initiatives that fight to combat issues like domestic violence and sex trafficking, as well as work for the rehabilitation of sex workers and teenage runaways. What Amy can’t stand is anyone engaging in performative art, and she often calls them out on her social media account.
A devoted fan of Blues, Classic rock ‘n’ roll, and symphonies, you will often find Amy listening to the timeless classics when she’s in the mood to unwind. While she takes pride in the days she traveled as a self-proclaimed “hippie,” Amy never turns down an opportunity to embark on a luxury trip, whether it is navigating the glistening waters on a swanky cruise or simply basking in the beauty of nature and heading back to her luxurious accommodations. While she often dons designer clothing and indulges in fine dining, Amy also has a soft spot for loungewear and simple, home-cooked food that she can enjoy from the comfort of her home. The fitness enthusiast regularly works out and eats a balanced meal to maintain a healthy lifestyle and a calm mind.
Air Force Amy is a Devoted Friend and a Doting Cat Mom
While there doesn’t seem to be a romantic interest in Air Force Amy’s life as of writing, she does have someone whom she holds closest to her heart. It is none other than her furry little companion, a cat she named Butch. She admits that her life revolves around Butch, a purebred Bengal cat whose lineage traces back to the breeding of Asian leopard cat with Siamese cat five generations ago. Amy suffered a huge loss when Butch’s sister, Rosie, passed away a few years ago, after being hit by a car. However, she is grateful for all the time she got to spend with the kitten. With an account solely dedicated to the adventures of Butch, we can surely say that Amy is a proud cat mom who considers her whiskered baby her ultimate source of comfort and emotional support.
An integral part of the free-spirited personality’s world is her girlfriends. Her close circle of friends comprises like-minded, strong, and independent women who love to throw parties and attend charity events. She shares a tight-knit relationship with her girls, who keep her grounded and loved with their transparency and genuine affection. Amy exudes confidence and enthusiasm, and describes herself as a “sought-after model, cover girl, centerfold, industry icon, media queen, and master of adult entertainment.” From what we can tell, Air Force Amy is leading the life of her dreams in Dayton, Nevada, one that she created for herself with determination, hard work and resilience.
