Hi Pete
I encourage you to go here:

We have a big event coming up in about a month called operation woodsman
http://www.eventzilla.net/web/event?eventid=2139003954
We do airsoft tacticals, we have members that do blank fire tacticals as well, and many public living history events. You can start your own unit if you like, or join an existing one. We have members (such as myself) who do 1 Can para. Feel free to shoot me any questions either here or on our boards.
