Some 140,000 men travelled from China by sea, to help European soldiers conduct their war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We recommend this sequence from the IWM as a wonderful example of how, in the midst of such ferocious human loss, modest, courteous and attentive interactions seem to do away with damaging notions of the other.
