I know it measures distance but how much distance? and how is it used with a direction? The rendezvous point is 4 clicks north of here? The LZ is 5 clicks downstream? I'm writing a screenplay with a military character. Any help would be appreciated...

a click (or klick) = a kilometer
1000 meters, or about 3,281 feet

Well, eveyone else has given you the correct answer. I'm just adding my two cents. A kilometer has been a click, or klick, since I was in the Army in the early 60s. Don't think it's changed since.

In Marine Corps Bootcamp it means "give me your attention right now" Then the required response is snap sir. They do this mostly at Parris Island South Carolina instead of San Diego California.

Kilometers. It's often spelled "kilck" though that's not universal.

It is Klick, as in kilometer.
