Japan fielded three of the first finishers from the individual and soon moved clear of the Americans to break their own world record and finish ten seconds ahead. Masanori Yusa swam the relay only three times in international competition breaking the world record each time. Hungary finished clear of France for the bronze medals with Germany back in fifth.
One of the more remarkable stories in Olympic history concerns French team member Artem Nakache. Nakache returned to the Olympic arena twelve years later in London despite having spent time as a prisoner at Auschwitz extermination camp. He is the only known Olympian to have competed before and after internment in a concentration camp.
