Shawnee National Forest, IL

Myself and 2 others were camping in Shawnee Forest at the top of a bluff about 300 ft tall. It was night. My friend said come lool at this...we saw objects, looked like a star...moving across the sky...spaced evenly moving east. No flashing lights...looked like stars. They were moving at the same speed. One was above the leading one or higher in the sky spaced the same as the ones trailing moving parallel to to the others, so two in the front basicly. They moved across the sky one after another for aboit ten minutes or less then faded out one by one in the middle if the sky. They were definitely part of an intentional formation. We had a clear view of the sky, clear night no clouds and no light pollution. I was completely sober and saw this cleary. I fly drones and this was not a drone similar to commercial consumer drones. There were no anti aircraft light or red light resemblimg a military operation.
