-Caveat Lector- http://www.l-e-o.com/news/0911RANGER.htm Ranger dies during training exercise 09/11/1999 Amy Wolfford Staff Writer A U.S. Army Ranger from Fort Benning died after being shot in the chest during a marksmanship training exercise Thursday in Bamberg, Germany, a preliminary investigation shows. Sgt. Jamey J. Dimase, a 26-year-old soldier with 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, was killed as a result of an 11:30 a.m. accident, a news release from Fort Benning stated. Medical personnel on the scene responded, but were unable to resuscitate him. Details of events leading up to the death were not released Friday. The fatality remains under investigation by the U.S. Army Special Operations Command. "They train realistically and it's dangerous," post spokeswoman Monica Manganaro said. Dimase was a team leader from Cincinnati, where his mother resides. His father is from Miami. Their names were not released. He entered the Army seven years ago this month and joined the Rangers in June 1998. His elite unit that planned and conducted special military missions had been on a routine training mission in Europe for about a month. Training accidents have claimed the lives of about three dozen Rangers in the last two decades. Dimase is believed to be the first Ranger killed on duty since 1995, the year four Rangers died in a swampy area at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida.
