Did any non-Chinese fight in the Chinese Civil War? Were there volunteers like in Spain?

None who participated in combat to my knowledge, but I do know of three men involved with the CCP armed forces.

  • George Hatem/Ma Haida - a Lebanese - American doctor who went to China to help fight venereal disease who ended up being a physician to CCP troops

  • Otto Braun - German Comintern agent and Manfred Stern - Soviet Comintern Agent. Military advisors to the CCP.
