Any one out there doing American Rev-war(18th century) re-enactments or living histories?

I did that over 30 years ago. Still have all my gear (and the uniform still fits!)
I use it some times for parades in the town I live in.
BTW, I could load and fire my flintlock in ten seconds.

I do 18th Century Royal Navy roughly of the Seven Years War period. Very little changes between then and the American Revolution in terms of sailors dress/kit. I have a Navy Arms Co. P.1777 Charlesville and a P.1776 British Cartridge box (which sometimes I sneak into my kit despite its historical innacuracy and similarity to the large boxes of the 1750's infanteers).
