Last of the Breed is one of those books that would make a great movie, but it's obviously too patriotic for Hollywood.
I think some of the old John Wayne WWII movies were great in that regard, with Sands of Iwo Jima at the top.
My favorite patriotic movies not necessarily in order:
1. Gettysburg
2. We Were Soldiers
3. Iwo Jima
4. Patriot
5. Hamburger Hill
6. Bataan
7. D-Day (John Wayne)
8. Bridge Too Far
