Military officers are among most programmed people. Even more programmed are some of undercover MIC workers, workers of security agencies and such. MIC uses advanced ways of programming people: as far as I know, sometimes, not always, a combination of verbal programming, pain, electromagnetic waves and drugs are used to split individual's personality and to create hidden sub-personalities within the individual.
The movie "The Men Who Stare at Goats" (2009) depicts the ways by which MIC uses psychic technologies to train some of their operatives. Bill Brockbrader is one of whistleblowers who expose the ways of training of people by MIC and inhumane applications of their skills. An "Interview with John Lennon's assassin" suggests that John Lennon's assassin was also preprogrammed by MIC.

Many people who underwent military training are programmed to kill without hesitation, on command or in certain triggering conditions. It is important for their ability to react fast in combat situations but makes them dangerous in peaceful life. Many movies including "Scent of Woman" explore this theme.
Action movies (especially Westerns), sports games and especially "laser tag" shooting simulation utilizing teams of real people allows anyone to get experience in shooting in combat situation. This experience clearly teaches that automation of combat reactions is essential for good performance. Taking time to think during combat is often futile. Optimal thing to do is to act automatically while relying on "6th sense" that is guidance form subconscious.
