Default First day

Hello,
I'm not sure if I'm doing this right but here goes. I was a UH-1 driver in Vietnam and recently a friend suggested I become involved in RC helicopters. He stated becuase I have no knowledge of RC planes whatsoever, and have not developed any bad habits, that helicopters may be the way to start and hold my interest. Now that I'm retired and in Florida this sounds like a great idea. My question would be how do I get started? I've learned through experience that the actual participants in the "sport" are the best and most honest sources of information, so any assistance in this matter would be appreciated.
Just as a side note, and I don't knoe if anybody really cares, I was Stagecoach 62 with the 155 AHC in Ban Me Thout in 1970 and Hornet 28 with the 116 AHC in Chu Lai in 1971. Thanks for listening.
