Thank you for those recommendations, x. A teacher introduced Tarkovsky's when "The Sacrifice" was on the screen in the late 80s. Burnt by the Sun by Nikita Mikhalkov is superb and is a reflection on the Stalin years. I'll be looking for your titles.

It looked like about half the crew survive the air attack at the sub base including the chief engineer.

I haven't read any mention of "Go Tell The Spartans", one of the earliest movies about Vietnam that was relatively unpoluted by the anti-war philosophy. Starred Burt Lancaster, very hard to find.

"The Enemy Below" with Robert Mitchen US Destroyer Escort vs U-boat

"April Morning" - Lexington and Concord

"The Bridge at Remagen" - Rhine crossing

Is the movie "A Bridge Too Far" about the Market Garden fiasco?

Yes

Go tell the Spartans

Excellent flick!
