“The United States Navy has started a program to investigate how members
of the military can be trained to improve their “sixth sense,” or
intuitive ability, during combat and other missions. The idea for the
project comes in large part from the testimony of troops in Iraq and
Afghanistan who have reported an unexplained feeling of danger just
before they encountered an enemy attack or ran into an improvised
explosive device, Navy scientists said.”
