Although the men in the photograph are wearing RAF uniforms, unless you actually know their actual identities, it is simply not possible to comment on any prior service.
Regarding the RNAS, their Good Conduct badges were worn below any Rate and Qualification badge a particular man was entitled to, upon the left sleeve as per Admiralty orders.
They took form of inverted lace chevrons, with the first being awarded for three years service, the second for five years and the third for thirteen years.
They are normally very clearly shown for individual men in the Register of Service in ADM188.
On the 31st of March 1918, the final entries were made for those men before they were transferred to the RAF.
