Characteristics: Lights on object, Missing Time

May to August 1979. On paper route at around 5:30-6:00 Am. I stopped to adjust the paper bag on my handlebars and something made me look to the west of VFW. One spot (light), then two, then three. They all moved same direction very slow moving East. Lights made a triangle. Came out of Dekalb Co. cornfields. Headed west, so slow and so huge should have fallen from the sky. These were slower than a blimp. Was not scared, just stuck looking at it. No recollection of rest of day. I have a clear picture in my head of the occurrence that I’ve seen over and over in my head for 45yrs. Told parents and brother. Mom didn’t believe me but my brother did. He believes I saw something, but stops short of agreeing with me. Current sightings identified recently look the same as my sighting. Have pictures of same thing as mine. Why the cornfields? How so big and slow, but not falling? 1979? Witnesses? This has haunted me for decades. Anything anybody? Not a joke. Take seriously please. Would like to know before I die. Thank you.
