I know I have a soft spot for military/military related movies being a veteran and coming from a military family so I may be biased but if y’all don’t mind an older movie check out The Best Years of our Lives. It came out in 1946 and is about 3 guys from the same town returning home after WW2 and picking up where they left off.
It may sound like a boring premise but I promise it’s an excellent movie. I know it’s currently available on Pluto TV.
Not to mention that Sands of Iwo Jima has some actual real combat footage in it. The tank scenes, the flamethrowers, all were for real
You could only get away with this in the days of black and white (splicing together real footage and studio shots), but even in black and white you can easily tell what shots are archive.
