Sorry Jester, I can't help you here. I was in the real thing and movies on the subject turn me off. The closest thing to a war movie I can deal with is something like "M*A*S*H". And even some of them are intolerable.

I know Band Of Brothers isn't really a movie, but it is my favorite. As far as a true movie, I was say Saving Private Ryan.

Kelly's Heroes! Great writiing for such an all-star cast. I especially enjoyed Donald Sutherland's and Carroll O'Connor's characters.
