We did have a visit from MRAF Lord Craig a couple of years ago. I should have taken a sneaky peek at his no. 1s to see if his was composite or separate rings. I might ping him an email and ask...
(The really amusing bit was that in no. 2 dress the velcro barely did up on his jumper epaulettes. I don't think the person who specified the length of them had measured the MRAF braid...)
