I used my rainmen-esque ability to do math to figure it out. I actually did it to 6 places after the decimal but I didn't want to make anyone think I was weird.

my wife is from Japan. she gave me permission to use the term "jappo", and says that it's not racist and those who think it is are retards.

That would be VF-111, the Sundowners. Initially VF-11, the squadron was established in 1942, and chose the name to epitomize their spirit and superiority over the Japanese. Here's their squadron patch:



And have some more Sundowner pictures:









(click for big on the first three)

As you can see, they transitioned to Tomcats after the Phantoms. After being inactive for a decade after standing down in the mid '90s as part of the post Cold War draw down, now they are VFC-111, the Navy aggressor squadron at Key West, flying F-5s:

One last bit of (pop) history...VF-111 was one of the Tomcat squadrons at Miramar that was involved with supporting the filming of Top Gun. For their trouble, they got a veiled shoutout in the movie...Clarence Gilyard Jr's character's call sign is "Sundown" and here's the helmet he wears:
