Nightime saw 4 disk shaped lights, 1 light moved slowly then dissappeared. 3 lights remained
I was going home from sports practice, I was 13 years old, I was at the American High School in Plittersdorf. I lived at Kolombusring. It was dark there was nobody else in the area I crossed the green sports field (heading west from the Rhine) and when I came to the street (Martin Luther King Strasse) I noticed that it looked brighter than usual. I looked up and saw 4 bright disks in a square formation above the sports field. I did not know what it was, I stopped and looked for a few minutes. The lights were stationary, I thought it strange, because they were not attached to anything. After about 3 minutes, one, the lower left disk moved away, in a northern direction slowly at first and then just disappeared, the other three remained stationary. I got scared and fast walked away home, about a 7minute walk. I told no-one but I never forgot. The light disks were bright pale yellow, and were about 1.5 cm to the eye. The area I lived in, in 1969 was a secure diplomatic area. US Embassy Staff lived in the area as well as US military personnel (of high rank; Lt. Col. and above) attached to NATO. The Commander of US Army V Corps lived nearby. Also diplomats from Embassies friendly to the US lived in the area.
