These are ones I own
The Four Feathers (1939
Sahara
12 O'clock High
Band of Brothers (I watch the first two episodes, "Why We Fight" and the interview with the real paratroopers every Memorial Day).
The use of the word "but" usually indicates that everything preceding it in a sentence is a lie.
E.g.:
"I believe in Freedom of Speech, but". . .
"I support the Second Amendment, but". . .

I like Comedies personally, here are some that I didn't notice on the list:

-Little Nicky
-Out Cold(it's like Casablanca with stoners & snowboards!)
-Tank Girl
-In The Army Now
-Old School
-Wasabi(In original French w/ English subtitles, you won't get one of the jokes without it.)
-Tremors 1 & 2 (3 & 4 were ok, but not great)
-UHF
Obamalypse, Part II: The Armening. (-NPR)

Lots of good ones. A couple that I did not see, but thought of:
Man on fire
Full Metal Jacket
Once were warriors
We were soldiers once
Siege on firebase Gloria
And I have to mention again Casablanca. Every year or so, I have to sit down and watch it again. I love that flick.
