Orange lights in a spread formation.Crystal clear night around 12 degrees. Went out for a smoke when I looked up in the sky and observed (6) orange to red circular like objects that seemed to be in a spread formation. Watched for about 15 seconds then ran in to grab my Galaxy 4 cell phone. Got off 5 shots and captured (2) before they disappeared. Down loaded the photos to my desk top so I could zoom in and see what I had..... Called my brother in AZ to tell him....he said it was stealth helicopters.... They see them all the time out there in the desert. Don't think they were choppers......((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD))
