October of 1937 in Shanghai

Saw the movie on a recent flight TMP link

A little background on it – link

thumbs up

And yes, the Chinese did have a lot of German equipment they bought from Germany, before WWII.

Way back in high school one kid argued with me that the Japanese were using German equipment (his 'proof' was a propaganda poster showing Japanese troops in German stahlhelms.) I told him that if the Germans had shipped the Japanese any such helmets, the Japanese would have melted them down for the steel… LOL
