formation of 6 saucers moving from Wright Paterson east to Dayton Ohio

When I was 13 at school and standing at the back of school, I saw coming from the southeast a group of saucers(6) flying in a triangle, point first towards the city of Dayton. The saucers were a sky blue color but darker than the sky. They could have came from the direction of WRIGHT PATTERSON AFB. They circled once then climbed out of sight.

That night on WHIO-TV they had a report from WRIGHT PATTERSON AFB. The repoter said 20,000 people had seen the saucers. The USAF sargent said: "What everyone saw was the sun reflecting off garbage can lids." Then he held up two lids.

For the amount of people that saw them, I can't find anything on the WWW.
