Established at NAS Miramar at the same time as VF-1 the squadron completed crew training and received it's first F-14s in July 1973. Squadron markings in the 70's were among the most colorful of all F-14 units. They composed a blue rudder with two white stars, the 'NE' tailcode and a blue/white/red sash on the forward fuselage, known as a "Langley Stripe", in reference to the markings carried by aircraft flying from the first ever US navy carrier, the USS Langley (CV-1). Most recent markings seem to be a small 'NE on the rudder and a skull on the tail. Thanks to www.topedge.com for the information.

VF-3 pilots wore the M422-A jacket with their legendary Felix the Cat patch. VF-3 flew F-4F Wildcats from the carriers Saratoga, Lexington, and Yorktown in historic battles at Wake, Bougainville, the Battle of the Coral Sea, and Midway. It became one of the Navy's most famous squadrons and its patches symbols of courage, honor, and bravery. The "Felix" patch was so popular, it was also adopted by VF-6, but Felix faced to the right instead of left. In today's Navy, a similar Felix patch is worn by the aviators of VF-31.
