Having just come from Tanagawa, one of the most grueling prison camps in Japan, where beatings and death from malnutrition were the rule, the prisoners were practically walking skeletons when they arrived at Umeda. For a while things looked bad. Then, knowing the risk they took if they were caught stealing, they decided that it was better to take that risk and live than not to take it and starve to death. What happened after that is one of the most unique stories to come out of World War II.
