If you are looking for something near you but don't mention where you are it's kind of hard for people to help much. Welcome aboard in any case.
I read the from as being a past tense. I think I have seen some refences to German reenactment units in those areas but that's not something I follow closely. If you haven't checked out the Living History sub forum I'd make a post or two there.
Welcome to the club ! Perhaps reading something on Fort Eben Emael Welcome to our website – Fort Eben-Emael , about one of the first FJ attacks of WW II might be interesting for you, got some photo's of the fortress (been there four times) and the FJ manequins if you're interested (just PM me).
Welcome to the forum! Much of my extended family lives in the south eastern part of that great state (I lived in the capitol for about 6 years as a wee lad).
