Interesting book, but have you ever heard of Charles Upham? The only combat soldier to win the VC twice for combat. (Others have been for saving others).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Upham

His story reads like a Hollywood action movie but is true.

Do they know a motive for the killing yet?

Sounds like the shooter had mental health issues (PTSD). I'm not sure I'd want to be on a firing range with someone known to have problems.

Only in America would you take someone suffering with PTSD to a shooting range as therapy, genius.
