Of the ones not yet mentioned:

In the late 80's HBO (IIRC) ran a series called letters from Vietnam (or something like that).

That was a really good series.

Also, I like the longest Day. This is (for the most part) a historically accurate presentation of D-day.

The movie has one of the best battle sequences of all time, showing the raid on Ouistreham.

Gettysburg is a good movie as well (Adapted from the "Killer Angels").

Patton is also a good combat movie, and gives good insight to the political struggles between the Allied generals.
