Couple observes Star-like objects over Keesler AFB

I was standing on the upper deck of my apartment with my girlfriend. I was looking toward the west off and on. Having looked down momentarily, then back up, I saw a bright light in the distance. Thinking it was a star, I said to myself, "this is the first star tonight, I'll make a wish". I looked down to pick up something for a second time, then looking back, the single star was gone and was replaced by two star-like objects, side by side, about 5 inches apart at arms length. I alerted my girlfriend as they suddenly faded out. Above these lights all the while was a slow moving jet,leaving a contrail. In about ten minutes, we were startled to see a small BLACK single engine plane appear out of nowhere, headed southeasterly from Keesler AFB. Our apartment is about 2 miles east of the base in Biloxi, Ms. This is my first UFO sighting, but hopefully not my last.
