Stimulant use has long been commonplace in the military, from Incans given coca leaves before battles to Allied soldiers using amphetamines during World war Two,

and British, French and US troops using modafinil in more recent conflicts. In his book Mind Wars, Jonathan Moreno describes extensive recent research by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa),

"The military gives them their technological experience, managerial experience and networks,#says Warner.""For the average person, the greatest barrier to being an entrepreneur is'Where the hell do I start?

"Some of the military units work like a civilian organisation, says Marian. They encourage entrepreneurship, the feeling that if you come up with a good idea that answers a real need of that unit's mission,

The founders of Waze received their technical training in Israeli military intelligence. The giant Israeli tech firms Nice, Comverse and Check point were created all by Unit 8200 alumni

They emerge from military service and three years of studying with zero debt, eager to take a year off to pursue their dreams.

That youthful exuberance, combined with the rigorous military training in technology and project management, has found a natural home among cafes running down the centre of Rothschild.

But as the US military has been gearing up for operations in Syria in response to the Assad regime's alleged use of chemical weapons,

as previous military campaigns have shown, US military commanders often see new conflicts as an opportunity to use recently developed weapons.

In some cases, these offer unique capabilities, such as destroying stockpiles of chemical weapons. Employing exotic new weaponry can also offer the opportunity to demonstrate that the investment of significant sums was spent money well.

Agent Defeat Weaponsthe US military has for many years been working on weapons designed specifically to target sites believed to house weapons of mass destruction, such as chemical or biological weapons.

#The Air force has confirmed it has two such systems in its inventory. The CBU-107 Passive attack weapon (PAW) is essentially a weapon casing packed with thousands of penetrator rods with no explosives.

While Air force officials have argued the highly manoeuvrable aircraft with stealth technology would be useful in dealing with Syria's sophisticated air defence systems and surface-to-air missiles,

if the Air force pushes for it, the F-22 may still get its first outing during the forthcoming conflict.

the Air force has conducted classified work in high power microwaves for years, and some suspect it already has such weapons available.#

So could soldiers someday print and assemble missiles on the spot, in the same way that artillery crews custom-load their rounds or weapons handlers mount guidance kits on some types of bombs?

as Ankara deployed military force for the first time against the terrorist group. Official Turkish sources confirmed Turkish F-16 warplanes based in Diyarbakir,

The Turkish air force said that PKK training facilities, shelters and antiaircraft batteries were targeted in the five camps.

Turkey is also to allow the US-led coalition to use its Incirlik airbase and other bases in the south of the country to conduct strikes against Isis. According to media sources allied combat missions from the base could begin in August.

Additional airbases in the nearby cities of Diyarbakir and Batman will be opened to allied planes for emergencies.
