Summer 2020. Soldiers of the 1er RI, on duty on "Opération Sentinelle", patrolling the streets of Calais, Normandy.
EDIT: Even "La grande Zohra" managed to get on the pic! ;-)

On December 4, the French daily Le Monde was the first to announce that the 18-person defense ethics committee Comedef (Comité d'éthique de la Défense), operating at the Ministry of Armed Forces, authorized research to increase the endurance, physical fitness and combat capabilities of soldiers using invasive techniques.
The recommendation was presented during the annual forum innovation defense (forum innovation défense), which took place on December 2-4 in the online formula.
It is primarily about technical, surgical and pharmacological support of the senses or the implantation of chips that will be able to send or receive remote information useful on the battlefield and locate soldiers to avoid fratricidal fire. The ideas include, for example, operations on the human body, incl. of the hearing system in such a way that soldiers could hear ultra- and infrasound or the cornea of the eye, to increase visual acuity by several dozen percent or to enable vision in the dark. The idea was given the media term soldat augmenté, i.e. an improved soldier.
At the Defense Innovation Forum, Florence Parly stressed the importance of ethics and compliance in taking steps in this area, but also stated that France cannot lag behind other powers such as China, Russia and the US, which have long had conduct this type of research.

This seems to be a rather slippery slope. I can see things like corrective surgery but not "enhancements". At what point do they stop? The reading of senses? The reading of minds? The control of minds? All of these things have been suggested by the scientific community at some point.
