Valkyria Chronicles
Alt titles: Senjou no Valkyria: Gallian Chronicles
Synopsis:
The Nation of Gallia has always remained neutral in conflicts and has only gone to war to defend itself. However, as war flares between the East Europan Imperial Alliance and the Atlantic Federation, Gallia is soon targeted for its abundance of ragnite ore, a versatile and hugely valuable material. The Civilian Militia is soon called into action, and Welkin Gunther - son of a legendary war hero - is named leader of Squad 7. Under his command are the headstrong and practical Alicia Melchiott; the sharp-tongued Brigitte Stark; the grizzled veteran, Largo Potter; and Welkin's adopted sister Isara, whose Darcsen heritage means she faces prejudice, even from members of her own squad. With the rest of Squad 7 and the mighty tank Edelweiss, they must do their best to defend Gallia.

Pumpkin Scissors
Wars leech the life out of a country in so many ways. They consume lives and resources at an incredible rate, but what is worst is the way they eat away at hope. The Empire, which has survived the years of war, now finds itself with a new conflict to resolve: with the exception of the noble families that managed to hold their wealth during the struggle, its populace is made up of starving citizens and war-damaged soldiers. Section III of the army of the Empire was created to deal with this ongoing problem; however, their progress was been slow on all fronts. The citizens fear and distrust them due to their experiences with other soldiers, the nobles have no use for them, and the other branches of the military mock them for the ineffectual nature. LT. Alice L. Malvin of Section III Pumpkin Scissors won't be defeated, though, even if her newest recruit does have something unusual about him.

add recValkyria chronicles and pumpkin scissors are two show with different stories but with basically the same layout. They're both set in a psuedo-early 1900's war time era with strong female protagonists, a unique supporting male and a odd assortment of characters in a troop.
Though they bot focus on two entirely different themes (and valkyria chronicles is a bit mor immature) you'd probably like one if you liked the other.
Both Valkyria Chronicles feature a motly band of a military unit lead by a strong male/female pair. Both offer action, comedy releif, and social commentary on the effects of war.
Both anime are militaristicly themed and both take place in worlds based on the first half of 20 century. Valkyria Chronicles and Pumpkin Scissors are different in style. Still, if you're into militaristic anime you should check those two.
Fullmetal Alchemist
Alt titles: Hagane no Renkinjutsushi
Once upon a time, two brothers passed the happy days of their childhood by studying alchemy, which is governed by the equal transfer principle: an eye for an eye -- you can't get more than you give. But these brothers tried to defy that law, and a horrific accident resulted. Now, the older brother, Edward, is called the Full Metal Alchemist because of his metal limbs, and the younger, Alphonse, is a soul without a body, trapped within the confines of an automaton. Together they search for the power to restore themselves, to find the lives they lost so long ago...

add recBoth these shows center around a small group of people within the military. And although their adventures are full of comical moments, there is always the strong military pressence. Fans of one would no doubt like the other as well.
Valkyria Chronicles is yet another anime that takes place in world based on the first half of 20 century, just like Fullmetal Alchemist. While in compare to FMA, VC does contain lots of silliness and hints of echii, if you like militaristicly themed anime, you should watch both.
