Description
WWII Replica Clicker
This brass clicker, referred to as a "cricket", is a replica of the ones used by the 101st Airborne Division during the liberation of France in June 1944. Specifically, they were used during Operation Overlord on D-Day.
Clickers were an excellent method of communicating without arousing German attention and also helping distinguish between friend and foe.
Features:
- Made of brass
- Inscribed with "June 6, 1944"(D-Day), "Operation Overlord", and "Normandy" on its sides

Loud
Well made. This clicker is nice and loud, much louder than the clickers you can buy at pet stores. I’m a recording engineer, and I use this to test room acoustics and for time aligning multiple microphones. Note that the black part is spring steel, and it will rust.

The clicker was as I imagined it would be.
I am glad this WWII item is available to show us that a simple item played a big role in the invasion many years ago.

Normandy Clicker
Close your eyes and click this little instrument: you will remember all the scenes in Normandy when our troops were landing by parachute and some by sea and trying to find each other without using voices. A part of history.
