“I would replace ‘The Longest Day’ with ‘Saving Private Ryan’”
For WW 2 my pick would be “Patton”.
For Vietnam “The Siege of Firebase Gloria” would be right beside “We Were Soldiers”. Both excellent films about
the war. Firebase Gloria is spooky it’s so realistic, stars real Nam vet R. Lee Ermey.

For WWII, Honorable Mention would go to “The Big Red One.”
