Sorry,I never read some Chinese were service in Shanghai scottish vulunteers before.After all,That's a very small unit.
He wasn't a Flying Tiger per se, but he was part of the 14th Air Force, which wore the "flying tiger" on their shoulder insignia. He was stationed at Xian and Chengdu.
There were Chinese members of the Royal HK Regiment, but I can't speak to the Shanghai Defence Corps - I believe most of its members came from the European Community.
