I wrote and Illustrated an article for 'Military Illustrated' Magazine number 120 May 1998, called 'The Soldiers who Killed Christ: Pontius Pilate's Bodyguard,' which might be of interest to you.
It was mentioned earlier in the thread but as you say only the original first two posts seem to have survived. If you can not get the magazine I can email the article to you if you like. Do I have your address if not can you PM it to me?
On one well documented occasion Pilate had some of his soldiers disguised as civilians which should support their local origin. However the general consensus is that they were indeed mainly recruited from Samaria.
