Throwback Thursday: The 1st Debit Card in Chattanooga

CHATTANOOGA (WDEF) – For our Throwback Thursday segment, we look back at technology from 30 years ago.

It is January, 1986.

In our first story, we report on a new way to pay for things, called a debit (card) service.

CHATTANOOGA (WDEF) Our second story follows an incident the night before where a Chattanooga police officer was shot in the shoulder.

The story looks at the new Police protective vests that officers are beginning to wear.
