I can confirm the identification for the third object as being USA 276 that was exactly on time according to Calsky ephemeris (TLE epoch: 17155.10977510 ). The second object had an appulse to Alpha CrB at 21h31m28.5s TU. It passed 69 seconds behind the first one. If the first object was C then it was 1m40s ahead of Calsky ephemeris for object C. If the second object was B then it was 1m16s ahead of Calsky ephemeris for object B.
