There are a lot of good ones, but I think my favorite is Midway. Followed closely by Tora, Tora, Tora and Apocalypse Now. I'm sure that there are many more that are better, but I find these enjoyable to watch over and over.
Saving Private Ryan or BoB

Occasional factual, grammatical, or spelling variations are inherent to this thesis and should not be considered as defects, as they enhance the individuality and character of this document.
flyerdukebut I think my favorite is Midway.
The problem with Midway was the extensive use of archival footage made continuity a little inconsistent. Often you had a particular character climbing into one type of aircraft, taking off in another and landing in yet another. The final climactic "crash on deck" scene utilised well-known crash footage of an F9F Panther that the producers insisted on using because "it looked cool".
Despite the dodgy SFX of the period, I'll drop a vote for The Dam Busters"
Does star wars count?

Check out my blog here.
Battleground, The Longest Day, They Were Expendable, SPR, Battle of Britian, Midway, Battle of the Bulge, Bridges of Toko Ri, Apocolyse Now, A Bridge Too Far, are my top 10.
Well I don't see why not. I may have to change my favorite to Star Wars: A New Hope.
lol If i had to go with based on a real event, probably we were soldiers.
Kelly's Heros, the beast, or platoon

I think you guys have been forgetting "Twelve O'clock High". I also enjoy "Wings", it's a silent movie but great shots, and a good twist to the end.

Band of brothers
All quiet on the western front
