They look like Chinese troops from one of the Japanese puppet states set up in China.

He needs a scarf on to be Pike. L/Cpl Jones is the one wearing the WWI issue German helmet.

I think they already went through the bottom of the barrel and are bringing up the muck from underneath it.

I think he may be wearing the helmet he was given when he was with the KMT. I still think the guys in the lighter uniforms are Chinese. Soldiers of the puppet Nanjing Government/Wang Jingwei regime. They might be former POWs captured during the Battle of Shanghai because – apart from the Jap helmets - they are equipped like the German trained divisions that were decimated in that battle. I suspect that the guys in darker uniforms are Japanese. Seconded to the puppet forces to make sure they don’t run away. The slightest sign of disloyalty was punishable by death.

Status: offline 		German trained/reorganized divisional troops in the National Revolutionary Army trained by Hans von Seeckt? 8 total divisions were equipped with all or some german gear, the 3rd, 6th, 9th, 14th, 36th, 87th, 88th and the Training Division

There were also another 12 divisions traind by the Germans before 1937, but they had no German equipment, these guys have some of the equipment, so they are probably one of the first 8 divisions he trained.

MP-18*, it is

RGC (colaborators/pupet goverment) Troops**, it is


.......

*As to weather or not they were made in China or Imported I am not shure.

** The RGC troops had quiet a mixed kit, and as noted above some to many were defectors from the KMT , many of the picks I have of them you can see them fielding KMT weapons.
