He loved education, but hated schoolmasters. Most of all, he wanted his youngsters to overcome their weaknesses by confronting them. Gordonstoun boys rose at seven, donned shorts and, still barefoot, ran yards to the washroom, where they showered, summer and winter, in cold water. Energetic, tough and competitive, Philip flourished under Hahn's regime, and there are strong traces of Hahn's philosophy in his approach to life today.

Prince Charles, by contrast, loathed it. Philip excelled at hockey and sailing, and in his last year became headboy, or 'Guardian'.

But Gordonstoun also had severe limitations. Hahn never married, and never taught his boys about what women thought or felt. Philip couldn't help but be affected by this attitude. And his sons' failure to form sustainable relationships with women may stem directly from it. One master adds: 'I remember boys in the sixth form coming to me as they were leaving school, and asking me about the facts of life.

I suppose the truth is Hahn was a repressed homosexual. Certainly, we all thought so. Philip was undoubtedly well cared for at Gordonstoun, but he was just as much an appendage to his family as before. Two contemporaries recall how each term there were long discussions about where the homeless prince would go for his holidays. In the five years Philip was at Gordonstoun, neither George Milford Haven nor his brother, Lord Mountbatten, who was Philip's other guardian in Britain, ever visited him.

Perhaps they were too busy. Even so, it seems an extraordinary lapse. On every occasion, Philip was left to fend for himself. One contemporary remembers organising a whip-round among the boys for the loan of collar studs and cufflinks so Philip would be properly dressed at the wedding of his cousin, Marina, to the Duke of Kent.

Had it been merely his clothing that was neglected, Philip would probably have been unaffected. But two events occurred in the winter of that would leave the adolescent more lonely than ever. While flying from Germany to a wedding in England, his sister, Cecile, her husband and two children were killed when their plane flew into a chimney stack. Mountbatten was best man, and Philip was left to travel alone from Gordonstoun to attend the funerals. In the photographs, his near-white blond hair stands out among the dark greatcoats of Germany.

Then, less than six months later, George Milford Haven died suddenly of cancer at the age of Once again, Hahn called the boy into his study to announce bad news. Just how much he was affected by these deaths is hard to gauge, for friends say Philip never talks of them.

Neither do his Gordonstoun contemporaries recall any displays of grief. Was there no one to turn to? If so, he also did what he would do often in times of difficulty: threw himself into solving a practical problem, this time the question of what he would do after Gordonstoun.

Influenced first by his father, and then by Lord Mountbatten, Philip had decided to join the Navy. Mountbatten had taken his brother's place as Philip's guardian. Later, he would play up his role in raising the future Royal Consort, and even claim to have single-handedly engineered his romance with the English princess, but in reality he had little to do with the boy until , when Philip was nearly He excelled at naval training, and would have passed out with top marks except for his atrocious spelling.

The Dartmouth period is remembered chiefly for the first meeting between the young prince and the blue-eyed year-old who would later become his wife. Prince Philip was put in charge of entertaining both Elizabeth and her sister Margaret when they paid a visit to the college.

But it has another significance. For Dartmouth and the Navy would be the making of the boy into the man. No doubt about it. If he hadn't become what he did, he would have been First Sea Lord and not me. The atmosphere at Dartmouth was frenetic, for Britain was on the brink of war, and young men around the country were already being called up.

Prince Philip's first posting was in January , to an elderly battleship, HMS Ramillies, based in Ceylon and used to escort Australian transports to the Mediterranean. He was young, free, and on his own. The only contact with his sisters was through his aunt, Louise, Queen of Sweden. The Navy gave Philip a taste for travel that would last the rest of his life. But early on, at least, he was kept far from the fighting. Greece wasn't yet at war, and no one wanted to risk having a Greek prince killed by enemy action while serving in a British man-of-war.

So Philip passed his time, among other things, filling out Admiralty Form S , 'Journal for Use of Junior Officers', a ruggedly bound volume with marbled endpapers.

The entries reveal him passionately interested in technicalities, and still not much good at spelling. Hitler's Axis allies are consistently 'Italiens'; buoys pop up as 'bouys'; there are 'misstakes', and 'exept'. The title page is signed Philip, Prince of Greece, but the men called him Pog.

In the evenings he was 'Captain's Doggie' and one of his duties was to make the cocoa.

Only after Italy's invasion of Greece put him formally in the Allied camp did Philip begin to see any action. And when it came, it was dramatic. Philip was mentioned in dispatches, and emerged from the war one of the RN's youngest first lieutenants.

Day after day, the shy, nervous King George VI, with his knock-knees and painful stutter, walked through the rubble of London, accompanied by the Queen. Buckingham Palace was bombed, and its shattered windows boarded up.

The King could have moved to Windsor, or even to Sandringham in Norfolk, but he chose to remain in London, sharing his subjects' ordeal. As the Queen explained: 'The children can't go without me. I can't leave the King, and, of course, the King won't go. Behind the beard was Philip. Elizabeth was a shy and obedient girl.

Her father was particularly possessive of her, and had raised her in a very protective atmosphere. She and Philip had known each other since she was 13, but it wasn't until after the war that he began paying her serious attention, driving up to London in his black MG to see her. In , Philip proposed.

The King objected. He liked the younger man, and even told a cousin he believed Philip thought about things 'in the right way', but it was still too soon. Philip might have a good war record, but he lacked a name, he wasn't British and he didn't belong to the Church of England. The British monarchy was still trembling from the effects of the abdication crisis that had seen Edward VIII leave the throne 10 years earlier. It would not do to make another mistake, especially with another foreign marriage. In due course, however, the Archbishop of Canterbury received Philip into the Church, and he selected his mother's name - Mountbatten - before becoming an Englishman.

These steps cemented Philip's ties to Britain, but underlined his isolation from his own family. His father had died, penniless, in Monte Carlo in , before Prince Philip could get to see him.

His mother returned. I mean we all knew who his wife was, but it didn't change anything,' says Myra Butter, a childhood friend of Prince Philip, whose wealthy father had helped support his family financially. It was a happy, happy time. For five years, the Edinburghs - as they were then known - alternated naval jobs with royal duties. For a while they were posted to Malta, where Philip had his own command, and Princess Elizabeth went out to a hairdresser for the first time. Until then, everyone had come to her.
