In the Indo-Pak war of 1947, he led the army along the western border. On 15 January 1949, he was appointed as the army chief of India. This special day was later celebrated as Army Day. After retiring from the army in 1953, he was made ambassador to Australia and New Zealand. He also helped in restructuring the armies of many countries due to his experience. The Government of India gave him the post of 'Field Marshal' in 1986. After his retirement, KM Cariappa settled in Madikeri in Kodagu district of Karnataka. He was a nature lover and also made people aware about environmental protection etc. At the age of 94, Cariappa died on 15 May 1993 in Bangalore. He was conferred with international accolades such as the Order of British Empire, Mens in Despatches and the Legion of Merit.

Field Marshal KM Cariappa had also been the BOSS of former Army Chief and President General Ayub Khan before Partition. There is a context in Cariappa's life that made him the greatest soldier. The matter is about the Indo-Pak war of 1965. He retired and was living in his hometown of Karnataka. His son Casey Nanda Cariappa was a flight lieutenant in the Indian Air Force at that time. During the war, his plane entered the Pakistan border, which was dropped by Pak soldiers. Nanda jumped from the plane and saved his life, but he climbed up the arms of the Pak soldiers.

There was Ayub Khan, the President of Pakistan at that time, who had worked in the Indian Army under KM Cariappa. As soon as he came to know that Nanda was caught, he immediately called KM Cariappa and told that he is releasing his son. On this, Cariappa abandoned the son's fascination and said that he is not only my son but of India as well. If you release him, don't even give him any facilities. He should be treated like a common prisoner of war. You (Ayub Khan) are requested to release all the prisoners of war or none. However, Nanda was released by Pakistan when the war ended.
