RE: The dog breed whippet can have a mutation in the genes that code for production of myostatin, resulting in the dogs having a huge muscle mass compared to other dogs from the same breed!

That's interesting! Now I need to google that to find out more about it. I'm not sure a strong mutant human would make such a big different in the WWII anyway, considering that most soldiers had rifles and guns, but the nazis did do some crazy stuff anyway..

I think super soldiers could become a reality within a decade or two (or maybe a bit longer), at least when it comes to technology. The question is "should we?" in my opinion. There's a lot of ethical problems with creating genetically engineered soldiers.

Sort:  

You are right about ethics, but I am afraid that the war machinery does not car about ethics..

That's definitely true.
