Why did US paratroopers use clickers?
"Clickers" also called "Crickets" were used by Allied paratroopers to distinguish between friend and foe during the initial Airborne assault during the Invasion of Normandy. Clicking your cricket and receiving a returned click would signal friendly troops. Trouble was the sound made by a clicker was similar to that made by a bolt action rifle being cocked. I think that only US paras used them bu I could be wrong! CRICKETS (CLICKERS) WERE ONLY GIVEN TO PARATROOPERS OF THE 101st AIRBORNE DIVISION... THE SEQUENCE OF THE CLICKERS THAT WAS USED TO HELP PARATROOPERS DETERMINE IF THEY WERE AMONG FRIEND OR FOE IN THE DARKNESS, WAS 1 CLICK, IF YOU RECEIEVED 2 CLICKS IN RETURN, YOU WERE AMONG A FRIEND...
