Ay yi yi, don't get that war started again! Many people seem to believe that the Marines wore blue tunics.
Best and most sensible advice is, if you are attached to some group or unit, do what the leader of that unit says, since in many cases, there is no consensus across the reenactor community about tunic color.
Second best advice is if you're not in a unit, find out who is closest to you, and join up under the most equitable arrangement you can find. Your location flag says Ireland, and there is a legion in Ireland, so they'd be a reasonable choice, I'd say. If that doesn't work, there are several in Britain that might work for you. Throw your hat in the ring here on the forum, and someone will pick it up, odds are.
BTW, thank you for your service.
