Most of the Asian (Indian / Pakistani / Bangladeshi) people I have had contact with still seem to regard themselves as from their ethnic background rather than British even though they are of at least the second generation here.
So I guess that whilst they may be interested in history of the country are born/living in they still dont connect with it on the same level some of us do.
I certainly wouldnt put anyone off joining a re-enactment group because of their ethnicity, in today's society that would be as wrong as could be ! (especially in the over PC bullshit society of the modern UK )
Besides we need more legionaries in our unit - our testudo is still only like a baby terrapin !
