Default Ras Al Khaimah wreathed bronzed cap badge - also worn by RAK Police?

I recently bought this Ras Al Khaimah Mobile Force bronzed cap badge in a lot. Their insignia was covering in this thread <https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45971&highlight=khaimah>, and an identical badge is shown on page 40 of the Yates and Lord book on the Trucial States/UAE Forces, referred to as a post-1972 belt buckle badge.

Has any further information come to light since the thread and book were written to confirm or deny the use of this wreathed badge by the RAK Police? Or do I need to specifically look for the WM version without wreath, as shown worn by the then police chief in David Neild's book?

(Usual caveat that the badge "may" be offered for swap or sale depending on whether new information comes from this enquiry).

All the best

Graham

It is the "Globe" button in the tool bar above the post editor.

You are here already for almost 10 years. Be a bit adventurous and hover with the mouse cursor over those icons you have noticed so many times to see what they promise as features.
Not all are useful in the context of this Forum, but several are.
