On June 6, 1944, Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight D. Eisenhower gave the go-ahead for the largest amphibious military operation in history: Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of
northern France, commonly known as D-Day.

Tik Tok Restaurant 12th Avenue on Sandy where Burnside Intersects in Portland, Oregon (1950s).

The Tik Tok was Portland’s first drive-in from 1938 to 1971 — with
its "Time to Eat" sign and giant neon coffee cup.  

The Foursquare Church of Portland now owns the property where
the restaurant once stood.

Who remembers having a window tray sitting on your car door
at the drive-in growing up?

On June 6, 1933, eager motorists parked their automobiles on
the grounds of Camden Drive-In, the first-ever drive-in movie
theater, located on Admiral Wilson Boulevard in Pennsauken, 
New Jersey.

Park-In Theaters–the term “drive-in” came to be widely used
only later–was the brainchild of Richard Hollingshead, a movie
fan and a sales manager at his father’s company, Whiz Auto
Products, in Camden. Reportedly inspired by his mother’s
struggle to sit comfortably in traditional movie theater seats, Hollingshead came up with the idea of an open-air theater
where patrons watched movies in the comfort of their own
automobiles.
