I don't know. This could be the pilot's personal badge. It may also be the emblem of this helicopter.
Cdr. pil. Jarosław Czerwonko in 2018 and in the following years flew the Mi-14 PŁ with the number 1007, which also had an individual mark, but it was not Yoda. On this helicopter in 2019 Cdr. pil. Jarosław Czerwonko has exceeded 3000 flight hours.
In 2019, the Mi-14 PŁ with the number 1005, visible in the photos from the farewell flight, underwent renovation, and the Yoda sign appears on this helicopter at the turn of 2020 and 2021. After reflection, I am inclined to the thesis that Yoda is an individual sign of helicopter No. 1005.

HENSOLDT UK announces the supply of Kelvin Hughes Mk11 X Band SharpEye navigation radars to two Polish minehunters.
The two equipped Kormoran II class vessels, ORP Albatros (602) and ORP Mewa (603) were built by PGZ Stocznia Wojenna Shipyard in Gdynia, Poland. Installed in conjunction with an OSI Maritime Systems integrated navigation bridge system, the radar will be tasked with navigation and surface surveillance functionality, providing the Polish Navy with solid-state radar sensors to ensure the safety of navigation whilst providing advanced small target search capability. This capability contributes to the shipping safety of navigation and enhances the performance in the operational tasks.
Adrian Pilbeam, Head of Sales Maritime Surveillance commented: “HENSOLDT UK are pleased to supply the Polish Navy with their first SharpEye radars to assist in the demanding operational tasks of a minehunter. This further extends a longstanding relationship for the supply of radar sensors to OSI Maritime Systems for integration into their bridge systems.”
The Polish navy now joins more than 30 navies worldwide using Kelvin Hughes SharpEye radar sensors.
