Old school war movies for that time period (30's-50's)? There are quite a few I think.
Paths of Glory
Run Silent, Run Deep
Here to Eternity
They Were Expandable
The Story of G.I.Joe (The Ernie Pyle Story)
In Which We Serve
Hells Angels
All Quiet on the Western Front
That's just scratching the surface...

Paths of Glory, good movie.. I didn't think of that myself, but now that you mention it, seems obvious. Gone with the wind was '39....
Sands of Iwo Jima has to be #1, action in the North Atlantic i always likes and Turner had it on 2 weeks ago. Back to Bataan.. 30 Seconds over Tokyo was '44 so that will fit..
