There are many good ones. Off the top my head I will go with:

Das Boot
Flags of Our Faters & Letters From Iwo Jima
Saving Private Ryan
(Mini Series) The Pacific
(Mini Series) Band of Brothers)

I like these:

"The Man Who Never Was"
"Guns of Navarone"
"The Longest Day"
"Paths of Glory" (WW I)
"Sink the Bismarck"
"Run Silent Run Deep"

So many more to like... so little time to watch!

Excellent list Jim.

I'd add 'Schindler's List'.
Maybe 'Dunkirk' also.
