Definition
Something that crumps; in military slang, artillery or a gun that makes loud explosive sounds.
Etymology
Agent noun from 'crump' plus '-er,' following the standard pattern of nominalizing verbs; military slang from WWI and beyond.
Kelly Says
Military slang creates some of the most vivid vocabulary—soldiers needed words for the sensory experience of warfare, so 'crumper' for artillery actually helps you hear the sound of the word itself.
