Default War Movies?

What's on the must-see list?
Nothing recent, no hollywood fireworks and stuntman specials...I'm talking 'Where Eagles Dare', 'A Bridge Too Far', 'Apocalypse Now'.

I dunno - Black hawk down I fell asleep too, twice. Too many 'Oscar' speeches and American patriotic twaddle. I like movies where they're trying to do the history justice rather than writing fictional characters in to make them look like heroes.
