Don't forget what I consider the most fictitious military film of all times, "Top Gun". The movie was, and continues to be, a huge hit. I had the great honor to have graduated twice from Fighter Weapons School ("Top Gun" is simply the squadron call sign); once when flying the F-8 Crusader and later on when flying the F-14 Tomcat. Thrilling though some of the scenes may be, there is nearly nothing authentic about the film, especially the behavior of the main characters.
It's a shame really, because filming the actual truth might have made an even better movie from a civilian point of view. From the point of view of someone who was there, "Top Gun" is cringe worthy and even embarrassing.
