The general's family immigrated to America.

In recent years, many countries in the world are facing a very serious problem, that is, the birth rate is getting lower and lower, the population structure is becoming more and more unreasonable, and the aging is getting more and more serious. The impact of this problem should not be underestimated. As far as the army is concerned, there are just not enough soldiers to provide it, so many countries regard immigration as an important source of troops.

As far as population is concerned, there is no doubt that China is the most populous country in the world. China people live in China, and China people are all over the world. Especially in developed countries like the United States. Due to some historical reasons, a large number of China people immigrated to the United States, and later they settled in the United States. According to statistics, there are about 3.64 million Chinese in the United States, accounting for 1.2% of the total number of Americans.

Coupled with the superior living conditions of Americans, many children will not choose to be soldiers at all. Therefore, the difficulty of conscription has been plaguing the US military. Faced with this problem, the US military turned its attention to the people of China.

China people joined the army as early as World War II. After the September 18th Incident in Japan, overseas Chinese in the United States set off a wave of joining the army. They joined the US military sequence and scattered around the world to fight fascist aggression. Although there are many people from China in the US military, it is worth mentioning that there are almost no generals from China in all core departments of the US military. Why on earth is this?

Although many people in China fought for the United States during World War II, they even died on the battlefield. But there is a sad fact that the mainstream American society at that time still did not recognize the status of Chinese. In fact, this situation still exists today, but it is not on the table. This also explains why there are so few China generals in the US military.

In fact, those China people who joined the army also know that there is basically no hope of promotion in the US military. The biggest purpose of their joining the army is actually for one thing. That's an American green card. Because of the emergency of the American army, it is stipulated that as long as you join the army and serve in the American army for more than six months, you can quickly get an American green card and become an American citizen. And these are the things that every Chinese in the United States want most, because getting them means being recognized by American society.
