Question UNRECOGNISED CLOTH BADGE

Hello all,

I have listed this under Royal Navy as I have been pointed in that direction. Is there anyone out there who can please give me a definitive identification of this printed cloth badge which is 4 inches x 3.5 inches.. Thank you.

This is a post war (WW2 that is) Royal Navy Damage Control Fire Party badge. Other colours used were…
Yellow: Pump and Flood Party.
Blue: General Repair Party.
Green: Electrical Party.
Black: Ordnance Party.
Orange: Decontamination Party.
Numbers were even for port side parties, odd for starboard. H was used for Headquarters.
