Chink In The Armor

I'd be interested to know the origin of the phrase: "A Chink In The Armor."
I'm guessing it has to do with an oriental man, a cannon, and a tank, but I could be wrong.

I think it would specifically be a Chinese man not oriental. Wouldn't the Gooks and the Japs would be offended if you confused them with the Chinks?
