Replica of the US Clicker Invasion. This little signal device was first used in 1944 during Operation Overlord in Normandy as a distinguishing feature of the US 101st Airborne Division. The clear click noise enabled paratroopers to communicate with one another in an inconspicuous manner or in the dark and to find their troops more quickly in enemy territory.

Clicker, Mil-Tec
US Paratroopers were issued these clicking “crickets”, which were intended to use to communicate with other Airborne troops, in the total darkness of night, immediately preceding the Normandy landings on D-Day June 6, 1944. This was a simple yet effective way to identify a solider as “friend or foe,” as a very distinct “click” sound is made when it’s pressed. Our Military Cricket Clicker Clacker is a high-quality, working replica with a genuine brass and steel construction, and it’s stamped with “U.S.” It’s a great military collectible but it can also be handy for home, camping and office use. Today, it’s most commonly used as a dog training device. The replica clicker clacker’s approximate dimensions are 2 1/4”x 1”x 5/8” and it has a lanyard hole for convenient carry.
