NARRATIVE

We were traveling west on I44 and stopped at the state line truck stop where Missouri and Oklahoma meet. Up in the air about 200 to 300 feet. was a large disk shaped object with large round yellow/orange lights spaced all around the perimeter that we could see. It was so large that we could not see the lights around the back side. It was huge. It dwarfed the size of a high school track and football field complex. We stood almost right under it. The people there getting gas and the clerk inside told us that they see these large craft quite often and they said that the craft were US equipment and that it is no big deal. We watched it move from it's stationary position upward for quite a ways up. Then it tilted upward to our right and flew away very fast and out of sight in seconds. The craft made no sound and no exhaust seemed present to us. It was so great to just stand and watch. It moved faster than any thing I have ever seen and it was larger than any aircraft I have ever seen in a museum or other wise.
Witness indicates that the date of the event is approximate.  PD
