Part I of III series of "Sino-German Soldier"
He is Chiang Wei Guo, son of the then Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek of Nationalist China, During his time in Germany, he participated in the Spanish Civil War as a Panzer commander in the German Condor Legion after completing his training, and then served as a Leutnant commanding a Panzer during the 1938 Anschluss with Austria, and finally, the invasion of Poland. Afterwards, he returned to China and quickly rose through the ranks through his father's connections. In this photo he is seen wearing a Unteroffizier's Waffenrock.

Now that is very odd.
I mean... With the 3rd Reich and its politic of "The aryan race is the top" this photo initially made me think about a photo-montage... It's too unbelievable.
Oh well you know... "If you want to be a top soldier... join the german army!"
I find this photo as a weird but still unique piece of history. It's nice to see someone willing to keep that alive.

Weird... I thought Indians were fighting with the british allieds in Italy. Hmmm... They probably were anti-UK indians (Or hinduans) who got promises from Germany that India would gain Independence from Britain once they were defeated (Which... never happened
But nahhhh... that kind of facts are destined to be erased... In another 60 years such thing as "Chinese or Indians were in the german SS" are going to be considered lies or simply forgotten.
Even I have problems to believe that kind of information... It's almost like if it were destined to improve the image of the SS (Which is an organization that I deeply hate). Sorry Oschawolf.

In any case, that was true. If you go to archives of Chinese soldiers in the 1930s, notice that they are wearing German-style helmets. Germany once trained the forces of Chiang Kaishek, and even in the Qing Dynasty, many German soldiers assisted Chinese soldiers and trained them.

There's a big difference between a country in which the flag is waved only by hooligans in a stadium and a country where it's waved by the entire population.

On a side note, wasn't he an alleged son of Generalissimo Chang? Or am I thinking of someone else?

At least, that's what I've heard. Very mafioso-like.
