Yes it does. If your HOR/SLR is Virginia, you must file a Virginia tax return. https://www.tax.virginia.gov/military-tax-tips
In the personal info section of TurboTax, enter VA as your State of Residence. Your wife enters Alaska as her State of Residence. She has the option of filing in VA (your SLR), or in her own domiciliary state (AK). Obviously it is better for her to use her own domiciliary state, because it has no income tax.
