    Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas Mountbatten was one of Britain's great war heroes. A gre at-grandson of Queen Victoria, he entered the Royal Navy in 1913. (At that time his father, P rince Louis of Battenberg--later 1st marquess of Milford-Haven;1854-1921--was first sea lord ; after the outbreak of World War I, however, he was forced to resign because of his German b irth, and he later changed the family name to Mountbatten.) While chief of British combined o perations (1942-43) in World War II, Mountbatten directed the invasion of Madagascar and comm ando raids on Norway and France. As supreme Allied commander for Southeast Asia (1943-46), h e was responsiblefor the recapture of Burma from Japan. The last viceroy of India, hesupervis ed the creation of the states of India and Pakistan in 1947. He was created Lord Mountbatte n of Burma that same year. Subsequently, he was first sea lord (1955-59). Mountbatten retire d in 1965, although he remained a confidant of Queen Elizabeth II, whose husband, Prince Phil ip, was his nephew. He died when a bomb demolished his fishing boat in waters off the northwe st coast of Ireland. A member of the Provisional wing of the Irish Republican Army was convic ted of the murder.

    In spite of his many achievements, the greatest legacy of Lord Mountbatten is negative. He sh ould have settled the Kashmir issue prior to the withdrawal of the British from India. Becaus e of leaving the Kashmir issue unresolved, three majors have been fought, millions have died , and there are constant threats of a new war, this one nuclear, between India and Pakistan.
