Even for those countries which have a three or six month validity requirement in some form or another, it rarely applies to all persons with a passport with less than that amount of time remaining on the passport. But six months remaining validity and two or three sets of blank visa pages is an extraordinarily safe way to play it.
Is the OP's travel that of travel on an ordinary US passport?

Yes. But the issue in advance of that will be that the airline may not allow such a person to board a flight to the US. Also, DHS/CBP may make a bit of an issue about it on arrival at a US port of entry.
US citizens at a US port of entry should not be turned away from the US by DHS. However, in some rare instances -- due to misunderstanding, incompetence and/or malice -- DHS has turned away US citizens in the US, at a US port of entry and/or on the way to a US port of entry.
