I used to do them at Ft Lewis, Grey AAF, near Tacoma, WA. They were nice about it. I know they had the capability to do them up at NAS Whidbey Is but they wouldn't let you do them. I was on SoCal approach going into ONT this week and I heard them hand a civvie off to March GCA, so that's a good sign. Not sure where else.

As far as filing, I'd file for a nearby civillian airport with an approach and when you get close ask for a practice GCA at a military field.
