Bridge at Remagen theme, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMk5J4S7qu0 although Where Eagles Dare is pretty awesome too.

theres so many, but obviously BoB, Bridge on River Kwai, Dambusters,downfall, where eagles dare, panzerlied,theme for Zulu, Cruel sea, Reach for the Sky and for some strange reason the theme from Inglorious Bastards although the film was a load of old tosh, Great Escape is a rousing theme especially old McQueen racing across the countryside

Tough one for me its either
opening theme for operation daybreak from 1975
Operation Daybreak - YouTube
or the pacific 2010 theme song created by the great himself Hans Zimmer
The Pacific soundtrack main theme - YouTube

How could i have forgotten Cross of Iron!.....
Hänschen klein
Geht allein
In die weite Welt hinein.
Stock und Hut
Steht im gut,
Ist gar wohlgemut.
Aber Mama weinet sehr,
Hat ja nun kein Hänschen mehr!
"Wünsch dir Glück!"
Sagt ihr Blick,
"Kehr' nur bald zurück!"

All excellent choices. My favorite is the music from the 1950's documentary "Victory at Sea" composed by the famous Broadway composer Richard Rogers. A selection can be found here:
