War films suitable for a 9 year old

My 9 year old is currently obsessed with tanks, ships, aeroplanes, submarines etc from WW2. I don't like him just searching on Youtube so we are looking for documentaries or films that are good and free and a 12 rating or less. He has seen Memphis Belle and Battle of Britain. He's watched some Time Team where they dig up crashed planes and the Channel 4 documentaries about a man rebuilding a tank. He is really interested in the technology without really grasping the awfulness of it and I'd like him to stay that way for the moment.

Anyone got any suggestions for anything else suitable?

A lot of the 1950s films are classics and PG

Battle of the River Plate
Hunt the Bismark
The Cruel Sea
The man who never was (deception with a body and based on a true story)
The One that got away (the only German know to have escaped from a POW camp)
I was Monty's Double
The Desert Rats
