1983 AIME Problem 11

The solid shown has a square base of side length $s$ . The upper edge is parallel to the base and has length $2s$ . All other edges have length $s$ . Given that $s=6\sqrt{2}$ , what is the volume of the solid?

[asy] import three; size(170); pathpen = black+linewidth(0.65); pointpen = black; currentprojection = perspective(30,-20,10); real s = 6 * 2^.5; triple A=(0,0,0),B=(s,0,0),C=(s,s,0),D=(0,s,0),E=(-s/2,s/2,6),F=(3*s/2,s/2,6); draw(A--B--C--D--A--E--D); draw(B--F--C); draw(E--F); label("A",A, S); label("B",B, S); label("C",C, S); label("D",D, S); label("E",E,N); label("F",F,N); [/asy]

Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
