Order of Battle for Chinese Formations Shanghai August - September 1937

[James Patrick]

Greetings to all!

I was wondering if anyone had a more detailed OoB for the following formations who fought in and around Shanghai in late 1937. I am looking for a more detailed account (brigade, regiment if possible) for the following:

- 11th div
- 14th div
- 36th div
- 56th div
- 61st div
- 67th div
- 87th div
- 88th div
- 98th div
- 20th bde

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Peter Harmsen's Shanghai 1937, Casemate Publishing, 2013 extends your list and I have seen Chinese sources to Regt level doable on the internet. There is a French source with maps that are quiet detailed.

Thanks sir. Any links in the Chinese or French sources?

something like www.virtualshanghai. This project has expanded and I am not up to speed---but in their maps are Chinese and Japanese still's there are absolutely worthy of your time. The entire collection is a brilliant human endeavor.
