Possibly connected with that Polish unit that adopted a Bear during WW2.

Wojtek was the mascot of the 22 Artillery Supply Company but I don't know if the badge is related.
The only Polish "bear badge" I can think of has the bear rolling a wheel or carrying an artillery round.

Default Bermuda Garrison
Dear Paul,

Your patch is the Bermuda Garrison patch, see Barrie Morris, British Cloth Formation Signs Part One, Section Xii, Page 69, Item 45.

Regards Malcolm.
