Does Top Gun count?  Not a real favorite, but didn't it do more for Air Force recruiting than it did for the Navy?

Top Gun is my absolute favorite movie from an entertainment perspective.

My favorite military TV show was Over There, but was canceled right before they aired the last episode.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over_There_(TV_series)
