This article has caused a heated debate in China. Although the original title states these are “Chinese” soldiers fighting for Nazi Germany – many ethnic Chinese people point-out they do not look “Chinese” – but rather “Central Asian”, “Korean” (Korea was a colony of Imperial Japan and Koreans fought in the Imperial Japanese Army), “Tibetan” or even “Mongolian” (The People’s Army of Mongolia fought alongside the Soviet Red Army during the liberation of China in late 1945). Taiwan was also a colony of Imperial Japanese and some brain-washed “Taiwanese” (Chinese) also joined the Imperial Japanese Army Units. Both these fascist Japanese Units saw action in Mainland China – committing atrocities as they went.
