Lord Louis Mountbatten, according to The Crown, was the gentle father figure to King Charles. He had a castle in Ireland outside of Donegal and in 1979 went out in his fishing boat with his daughter, her husband, daughters mother-in-law, and a couple of children that were visiting .
In the parking lot where the boat just launched, a police officer questions a man with foreign plates. He called for backup when he realized the man was IRA.
The boat explodes in the water.
A small marker commemorates the event. Anything larger would attract vandals.
