'die Armee' and 'die Army' can both refer to military land forces. 'die Armee' is the normal German word and can refer to the military of different countries. 'die Army' is an English loanword and, in this context, refers especially to the U.S. Army, meaning the land forces of the United States. Learners may confuse the words because they look and sound similar. In German texts, people usually say 'Armee'. 'Army' only fits when the American Army or an English name is really meant.
