Since we're at war, my favorites are Gary Cooper in "Sergeant York," and John Wayne in the "Sands of Iwo Jima."
The fact that both movies portrayed sergeants and my last rank when I was discharged was also sergeant has nothing whatsoever to do with my choices of these movies.

Thanks, sergeandave, for your service to our country.
I JUST saw this movie for the first time a few weeks ago!! I have always loved Gary Cooper in Pride of the Yankees and her went WAY up to the top in this movie!! :o) MY all-time favorite war movie though is still "Midway," with "We were soldiers" a close second.
