D Day Trivia Question...Paratroopers take note

In his reply to the D Day Memorial thread, Paco noted that the top of the Arch is done in the three white identifying stripes that were on all the troop carrier planes of Operation Overlord.

The trivia question is:

Who can tell me WHY the D Day troop carrier planes bore such identification?
