Wonder how many realize, that in the 1930s, one of the first nations to send the Nationalist Chinese aid was Nazi Germany.
Search on line and you can find photos of that time with Chinese in German uniforms and helmets.
This was before Japan joined the Axis powers.

Thanks! I didn't know about that.
Came across these (below) on my images search. Obviously fairly recent. Haven't yet looked into it to see what it's about.
