SD:Pathfinder

 is a United States Recon unit.

Overview
The first two American airdrops drops into North Africa and Sicily did not used Pathfinders which caused the airdrops to be scattered. The new Pathfinders were equipped with radar beacons and light to guide in incoming paratroopers. In the Normandy landing Pathfinders were used but were scattered by German air defense and low clouds. Only one team were able to land at their planed landing zone while other set up their equipment at the wrong place. The Pathfinders even though most were at the wrong place were able to land sticks of follow up paratroopers near their location.
