Flat Top (1952)
War-action flick told in flashback style. The Commander of aircraft operations on an aircraft carrier in the Korean war, reminisces about his time serving as Fighter Squadron Commander on the same carrier during WWII, while fighting the Japanese in the Pacific. A good bit of actual combat footage from WWII is added to the movie, but it's blended into the action quite well and doesn't interfere with the story or vibe like it sometimes does in other war films which use that same technique.
