Formula

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k) * binomial(n,k) * k! * A000111(n-k).

a(n) ~ n! * cos(1) / (1 + sin(1)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 31 2020

Maple

b:= proc(u, o) option remember;
     `if`(u+o=0, 1, add(b(o-1+j, u-j), j=1..u))
    end:
a:= proc(n) option remember; add((-1)^(n-k)
      *binomial(n, k)*k!*b(n-k, 0), k=0..n)
    end:
seq(a(n), n=0..23);  # Alois P. Heinz, Aug 15 2021

Mathematica

nmax = 22; CoefficientList[Series[1/((Sec[x] + Tan[x]) (1 - x)), {x, 0, nmax}], x] Range[0, nmax]!
t[n_, 0] := n!; t[n_, k_] := t[n, k] = t[n, k - 1] - t[n - 1, n - k]; a[n_] := t[n, n]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 22}]
