My guess is this is in reference to Argentine Kansas or Armourdale Kansas. Both are old neighborhoods in Kansas City, Kansas located in Wyandotte County, Kansas.

Armstrong was a small town from about 7th street West to About Mill from I-70 North to Vermont. The area now is a housing project called Perry Square. The area was right next to the railroad tracks early 1900's. The area had alot of Russian Polish settlers.
