Watched this so much as a kid the VHS tape broke.
My brother, in the Marines at the time it came out, would come home and quote the hell out of this movie so I had to watch it.
One of my favorites of all time.

Ernie Kovac's final movie should be mentioned in this genre:

No Time for Sergeants. It made Andy Griffith a star.

Hot Shots is one of my favorites

As a submariner
Movies Intended to be Comedies
Operation Petticoat - The thing I liked about this movie is it can stay pretty close to home, being released close enough to WWII that the general public was still pretty much up to speed on military matters.
Down Periscope.
Not Intended to be a Comedy
Crimson Tide - absolutely hysterical if you know the subject matter. The mutiny would have happened by the time the opening credits were over.

I left a lot of meat on the bone in my OP for others to add material but I can't believe I left this off my list. This was piss in your pants funny!

TV shows:
MASH
Hogan's Heroes - would have been a great series finale but they really didn't do that back then.

Wow, Space Force looks bad. Long trailer and not one funny joke. My list Dr. Strangelove, MASH, Three Kings.

The first half of full metal jacket and Starship Troopers always has me rolling

Private Benjamin started out pretty funny but went downhill after she got out of bootcamp.

Down Periscope was good, but the first half of Stripes was GOAT potential. The back half was still great, but just not as good.
