Dr. Sadao and Hana were standing outside their house. They saw someone flung by the waves of the sea. They went closer and saw that he was an enemy soldier. They were in a dilemma. They first thought of throwing him back in the sea. But their compassionate nature could not allow them to throw the wounded person into the sea.

So they decided to take him in and treat his wounds first and then hand him over to the police when he recovered. Dr. Sadao operated upon the wound of the American and brought the bullet out from the wound. He gave him an injection to boost up the pulse rate. Hana administered anaesthesia to the American. They served the soldier even after their servants left the house in protest against sheltering an enemy in the house. When the soldier was fully recovered from his illness, Dr. Sadao sent him back to sea to an unguarded island, from where he could go away in a Korean fishing boat.

Dr. Sadao Holu was a very dutiful and an humanitanan doctor. He was very much compeled by his duty to help the enemy solder. Instead of caring for the prejudices of race and country he rose above to save the American soldier. His wife too lent a helping hand without paying any heed whether the patient was an enemy or a friend. He was floating his duties as a doctor and the enemy on the other, the feeling of compassion and humanity had the upper hand. As that time Japan is at war with America and a person cannot shelter an enemy. Even during his training he had realised the unpleasant experiences of racial discrimination among the whites. He had patriotic feelings and could not ignore his duties as a doctor since a doctor’s duty to save the humanity. Here the professional loyalty of Dr. Sadao came in conflict with a sense of national loyalty. But he operated upon the American soldier and served as his house in the most precarious conditions of his safety. He could face all the charges of a traites but he put his life in danger and saved the soldier.

Dr. Sadao was standing with his wife on the veranda of their house. They saw a wounded and escaped prisoner of war crawling on the beach. They brought him home but the servants were badly against them. Sadao performed the operation. His wife helped him. There was a great risk of Dr. Sadao being arressted for harbouring the prisoner of war. Being a patriot, he declared every thing to the General. The general was very close to Dr. Sadao. He had firm faith in Sadao’s faithfulness and surgery. He called him in the night because there arose a problem in his gall bladder. During the treatment he assured him all possible help, security and safety. He assured him that he would get the white American killed quietly by his private assassins that night. He asked Dr. Sadao to keep open the outer partition of the white man’s room into the garden while he slept. He told that the assassins would remove his dead body without making any noise. Doctor Sadao could not afford to see it. Therefore, he made the man escape in the night. In this way the general helped him in solving the problem.

Sadao Hoki was both an expert surgeon in the art of healing wounds and a scientist as well. At the age of 22, his father sent him to America to study surgery and medicine. There he fell in love with Hana but married after returning from Japan when his father was convinced that the girl was a pure Japanese. He was very generous and loyal to his country. His wife Hana was also a sympathetic, kind, obedient and faithful wife. While standing on the veranda of their house, they saw something crawling on the beach. They approached there and found that he was a wounded and an escaped prisoner of war. At one time they thought to throw him back in the sea. On the other hand, they thought that the fellow would die if handed over to the police. As a doctor he was trained to save a life if he could do.

There flowed the milk of human kindness in both of them. They brought him home but the servants were badly against them. Sadao performed the operation and his wife Hana stood by him through every thick and thin. There was a great risk of Dr. Sadao being arrested for harbouring a prisoner of war. Being a patriot, he declared everything to the General and was ready to face the consequences. This shows that both Dr. Sadao and his wife, Hana were sympathetic, loyal, patriot, compassionate and honest people.
