Three bright lights lined up on Orions Belt; darted across sky to form triangle I am Active Duty Air Force and was deployed to an undisclosed location. I was taking supplies outside and I glanced up at the sky, as I normally do being so interested in it, and saw what looked like the Belt of Orion. I noticed though, that it was brighter than usual and stopped to get a more focused look. As I did so all three bright lights, which were lined up PERFECTLY with Orion's Belt, shot across the sky and formed a perfect triangle. After staying stationary for maybe a minute each light blinked as if communicating before they shot off in a different direction. Being Air Force I know a decent amount about aircraft and there were no missions flying that early. Also, the lights were far too high in the sky for any aircraft to reach. I tried to tell my coworkers what I saw but no one really wanted to believe me. I was not able to get a picture because I had no camera with me.
