M*A*S*H
Heartbreak Ridge

 

[JT1968]

The Sands of Iwo Jima. Platoon. The Battle of El Alamein.

 

[Ben Nelson]

Lots of good ones listed already, but a couple I always watch when on TV are "The Train" with Burt Lancaster causing the art-stealing Nazis all kinds of grief, and "Paths of Glory" with Kirk Douglas defending three soldiers charged with cowardice in WWI.

My favorites pretty much line up with most everybody elses.

We Were Soldiers
Act of Valor(tied for favorite)
Saving Private Ryan
Heartbreak Ridge
Black Hawk Down
Flags of Our Fathers
Letters From Iwo Jima

Lone Survivor is on my "to watch" list and I'm sure I've missed a few.

More documentaries than movies, but I like WWII in HD and Vietnam in HD on the History Channel.

Those two are great. Have you seen their "Third Reich-The Rise" and "Third Reich-The Fall". A spellbinding four hours.
