===Silver Star citation===
'''Citation:'''

<blockquote>The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Captain Charles Chandler Krulak, United States Marine Corps, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving as Commanding Officer of Company L, Third Battalion, Third Marines, Third Marine Division, during combat operations against the enemy in the Republic of Vietnam. On 3 June 1969, during Operation Virginia Ridge, Company L was occupying ambush positions near the Demilitarized Zone west of Con Thien when the Marines came under a heavy volume of mortar fire and sustained several casualties. Although seriously wounded himself, Captain Krulak unhesitatingly left his covered position and, thinking only of the welfare of his men, fearlessly maneuvered across the fire-swept terrain to ensure that his Marines were in effective defensive locations and capable of repelling an expected ground attack. Shortly after the initial mortar attack, the Company was subjected to a second intense mortar barrage. Realizing that the determined enemy soldiers had accurate range on the Marine emplacements, and unwilling to incur additional casualties, he commenced maneuvering his men to an alternate location. Simultaneously, undaunted by the fierce barrage, Captain Krulak fearlessly moved to a dangerously exposed vantage point from which he pinpointed the principal sources of hostile fire and skillfully coordinated fixed-wing air strikes and supporting artillery fire on the enemy positions, silencing the fire. By this time, both the platoon commander and a platoon sergeant of one of his platoons had been seriously wounded. After repeatedly exposing himself to the relentless fire to supervise the evacuation of the casualties, he then personally led the platoon back to the main body of his Company across 3,000 meters of rugged mountain terrain to another patrol base and, although weak from loss of blood and the pain of his injuries, steadfastly refused medical evacuation until the arrival of another officer on the following morning. By his courage, dynamic leadership, and inspiring devotion to duty in the face of grave personal danger, Captain Krulak minimized Marine casualties and upheld the highest traditions of the Marine Corps and of the United States Naval Service.</blockquote>

==Legacy==
Krulak famously referred to the "[[Three Block War|Strategic Corporal]]" and the [[Three Block War]] as two of the key lessons identified from the deployments in [[Somalia]], [[Haiti]] and [[Bosnia and Herzegovina|Bosnia]]. These concepts are still considered vital in understanding the increasing complexity of modern [[battle]]fields.

Krulak explained some of his warfighting philosophy in an interview with [[Tom Clancy]] in Clancy's nonfiction book ''[[Marine (book)|Marine]]''. Clancy referred to Krulak as "Warrior Prince of the Corps." Krulak also rewrote the Marine Corps' basic combat study text, ''[[MCDP 1: Warfighting]]'', incorporating his theories on operations in the modern battlefield.

==Family==
Krulak is married to Zandi Meyers from Annapolis. They have two sons: David C. Krulak, a U.S. Navy captain who was a former commanding officer of Naval Hospital Okinawa, Japan<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://www.dvidshub.net/image/1535107/krulak-gets-promoted-captain |title = Krulak Gets Promoted to Captain}}</ref> and Dr. Todd C. Krulak, PhD., a retired freelance rave DJ who is now a professor at Samford University; and five grandchildren: Capt Brian Krulak (USMC), Katie, Mary, Matthew, and Charles.
He is the son of Lieutenant General [[Victor H. Krulak]] Sr., and the younger brother of Commander Victor H. Krulak Jr, [[United States Navy Chaplain Corps|Navy Chaplain Corps]] and Colonel William Krulak, United States Marine Corps Reserve.<ref>Coram, Robert (2010).
