The original song ( Burning Bridges) is easy to locate but I have never found the movie version.

I hate it when people throw out multiple choices when asked to name their favorite one, so I'll just hope that someone else nominates Elmer Bernstein's score from "The Great Escape".

Then we can all hear your favorite.

Seconded, with honerable mention to Basil Polidouris for "The Hunt for Red October" and maybe Jack Horner's "Aliens".

Yes, yes.... I KNOW the movie was not realistic in any way...

But again my favorite had war in it but wasn't really just a war movie. Excalibur, had they handed out clubs at the movie before the part where Arthur rides back to battle one more time. we would have gleefully bashed each others skulls in
