I did some work on their runways there between 1998-2000. Also fly the P3’s out of there as well. Had the military version of the MD-80 for personnel transport thereas well. Plus there is always the occasional plane in transit come through.

In the summer, P3's come over my house here in Olympia and heading west. Usually at 2100 or so then back again at about 2300. I'm guessing summer ROTC flights as it is so regular and predictable. The unique sound of a 4 engine turbo prop plane with that distinct whistle melded into the piston noise is music to me (brings memories of the Lockheed Electra back to me from my childhood)
