On 03-30-2016 at approximately 2058 hrs, I observed two bright lights unattached to an aircraft traveling in a direct linear flight path. At the time, the sky was clear of cloud cover and my friend and I were standing by his truck drinking a couple beers. We starting talking about other odd occurrences and tried to interpret them. My friend refers to UFO's as travelers. No sooner than he said that, I just happened to look up and saw what I thought to be a star, but it was moving. It was moving in a straight line from the north to the south. I immediately got my friend's attention and pointed at the object. I tried to record the light with my phone, but the light was too dim to be seen on the camera phone even after I zoomed in.I put my phone up and looked at the sky again. Amazingly, their was another light that I had thought was a star, but a lot brighter. It was hovering in the sky like a star before it started its flight path. This second light was not only brighter, but followed the same flight path to the south. This time, I got to record it. This was not a shooting star. I have seen them and this was not it. No sound was heard and the objects were flying at a high rate of speed. Shortly after the second light, I saw was appeared to be a jet following the same flight path. Judging by the sound of the afterburner, I believe it may have been an F/A-18. After being in the military for several years, I am pretty sure of that. The only thing that would be close to that sound would be a Harrier Jet or an F-22 Raptor. We watched the whole thing until we could no longer see them.This is the fourth encounter I have seen in the same county. In the video there is mild adult language used.
