"For You the War is Over!" is a non-fiction book that explores the history of civilian sailors during World War II. It highlights the experiences of crew members from the British Merchant Navy, who were involved in the war as unarmed actors. These sailors, hailing from over 30 nations, were interned in a naval camp in Westertimke, where they were held captive between 1941 and 1945. The book provides a deep insight into camp life, shaped by culture, religion, education, and sports, and demonstrates how the Navy adhered to the regulations of the Geneva Convention. The narrative is enriched by personal stories and historical contexts that trace the fate of these often underprivileged sailors. The liberation of the camp by British troops on April 28, 1945, serves as the dramatic conclusion to this moving account.
