Green flashing lights in formation over Shreveport

Summary

In November 1957, a school teacher from Texas observed three bright white lights with green flashing lights in a close formation over Shreveport, Louisiana. One object appeared to be towing something, one went north, one went south, and one vanished. Despite initial confusion, authorities concluded the sighting was of aircraft.

The area had confirmed air activity, including a refueling mission. Although no photos were taken, the report notes that other aircraft were recorded in the area at the same time. Despite initial doubts, the available data clearly points to a conventional explanation.
