The Chinese Army in India (CAI), or Chi Hui Pui to the Chinese – would advance through north Burma more than 100 miles from their operational base in India. Lt. Gen. Sun Lai-jen (Commander of the 38th Division which was raised from the Salt Guards who originally guarded revenues from salt, a government monopoly and were superior to most Chinese troops) said that the Chinese soldier ‘has a tried and true record. Now he has been given a chance to prove what he can do when placed shoulder to shoulder with his ally and on equal terms with the enemy’. And Colonel Rothwell H. Brown (Commander 1st Provisional Tank Group) declared Chinese troops ‘the bravest soldiers I have ever seen’.
