Talk:Victor H. Krulak

Brute

The infobox says that Victor Krulak's nickname was "Brute." How did he get this nickname? What is the story behind it?-Schnurrbart (talk) 12:23, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

This is admittedly a bit late, but whatever. In Robert Coram's book, he says that General Krulak got his nickname at the Naval Academy when a large upperclassmen looked down at the diminutive (he was only 5'4") Krulak and remarked, "Well, brute." Krulak was apparently taken with the nickname and went around introducing himself as "Brute" Krulak at the Academy. Must have stuck. 74.178.171.42 (talk) 00:17, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
