david? >> reporter: scott, as you just said, we have identified the alleg aalleged shooter as sf sergeant robert bales. he is 38 years old from ohio but was stationed at joint base lewis-mcchord in the state of washington. his name has still not been officially released, in part because of fear for his family's safety. but his wife and two daughters have already moved out of their home and on to the base at lewis-mcchord. investigators have established that on the night of the murders, sergeant bales had been drinking with two other soldiers. how much we don't know. but his subsequent actions seem methodical and deliberate. he armed himself and put on his night vision goggles. he walked off the base in full view of afghan guards, hiked a mile to mile to the first village where he killed 11, then back to a second village where he killed five five more. returning to the base, he crawled through an orchard as if he were trying to evade detection but was spotted by a search search party. only then did he surrender, invoking his right to remain silent and demanding a lawyer. to the families of the victims, it seems like too much murder and mayhem for one american soldier s
