I'm sure he did. He flew the -A out of Norton AFB in SoCal in the early '70's, and the -B out of McChord in Washington State in the '80's.

Elmendorf was (and is) a refueling stop coming in from Asia. He flew C-7A Caribou's in Viet Nam, and then the -141 after that. I know he had a LOT of time going back and forth to Viet Nam and various points in Asia.
