I also like Dances With Wolves, that could count as a war movie cause it starts with the protagonist in the Civil War, trying to commit suicide by charging across a battle field, cause he doesn't want his leg amputated. But his blatant charge encourages union troops who charge across after him, and they defeat the confederates, and win the battle and the commander of the union forces decides to make his best surgeon heal the protagonists legs and gives the protagonist and option to go to any post he desires after the war, and our hero chooses one in the west

that was a spoiler. oh well.

Over There is also a decent show about the Iraq war
