Its beginnings can be traced to the commissioning of the VF-1B Shooting Stars in July 1935, flying the F4B-4. In 1948, VF-3 was re-designated VF-31, and adopted the current title of Tomcatters. During its distinguished history, the Tomcatters have flown a multitude of venerable aircraft including the F4B-4, F3F-2, F4F-4, F6F, F8F-1, F9F-2, F2H, F3H, F-3B, F-4B, F-4J, F-14A, F-14D and F/A-18E. The squadron was originally known as the Shooting Stars. The original Felix squadron was VF-3. After the Battle of Midway, VF-3 and VF-6 swapped designations on 15 July 1943, resulting in a three-year controversy as to which squadron owned the Felix name and emblem until VF-3 was re-designated VF-3A on 15 November 1946, and awarded the official approval to adopt Felix by the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO). VF-3A was then re-designated VF-31 on August 7, 1948. Several well-known aviators have flown with Felix on their shoulders, including Charles Lindbergh and Butch OHare. The nickname Tomcatters was adopted in 1948. VF-31 / VFA-31 Tomcatters Squadron Patch – Sew On, 4" VF-31 / VFA-31 Tomcatters Squadron Patch – Sew On Aviators!
