Glory, Gettysburg (with Jeff Daniels), 30 Seconds over Tokyo.
Ya know, there were so many great ones, it's really hard to say just one is my favorite. I hereby vacate my previous list and amend it to include

The Guns of Navarone

Von Ryans Express

more as my memory allows.

No Fair! You're older, you can remember more.

WAY older! Besides, my father fought with the "Mars Taskforce" they replace Merril's Marauders. He was assigned to the Flying Tigers, after they were absorbed into the Army Air Corps.
