Excerpt: Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas George Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma KG, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCIE, GCVO, DSO, PC, FRS, n Prince Louis of Battenberg (25 June 1900 27 August 1979) was a British Admiral of the Fleet and statesman of German descent, and an uncle of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
