Chemistry has not only been used by modern army but it might have been the oldest way to try enhance fighting capacity. At Kolwezy in 1966, when the Kantangan mutinied, they were so drugged that they wouldn't feel wounds and it was fairly hard to stop them. On the down side, however, they were fighting like fools and they were more easy to shoot.

One could even say that these people eating the brain and heart of the ones they killed were also doing something similar.

Elsewhere, I think that several population around the world have done the same, using some kind of drugs to enhance fighting spirit. Even gangs may be doing so (not sure about that one).
