The United States Army works as a single military force, and is not split up into smaller 'armies'. Rather, the Army is split up into companies, which are groups of platoons sent on a particular mission. A platoon consists of squads, which are made up of a handful of individuals. There are sometimes around 200 enlisted men (as well as 4 or 5 officers) in a company and about 40 in a platoon. A company generally has about 3 to 5 platoons of men.

Whoever said the United States Army is not made up of smaller Armies does not understand the organizational structure of the US Army.

The US Army has 9 Armies. Armies are made up of 2 to 5 Corps, Corps are made up of Divisions, Divisions are made up of Brigades, Brigades are made up of Battalions, Battalions/Batteries are made up of Companies/Troops, and finally we get to Platoons which are made up of Squads/Sections and then Teams to battle buddies.

The answer is 9 Armies.

First United States Army - U.S. Army Training, Readiness, and Mobilization Commandformation at Rock Island Arsenal, Illinois Second United States Army - United States Army Cyber Command formation at Fort Belvoir, Virginia Third United States Army - United States Army Central active formation headquartered at Shaw AFB Fifth United States Army - United States Army North command formation at Joint Base San Antonio, Texas Sixth United States Army - United States Army South command formation at Joint Base San Antonio, Texas Seventh United States Army - United States Army Europe command formation at Heidelberg, Germany Eighth United States Army - United States Forces Korea command formation at Yongsan Army Garrison, South Korea Ninth United States Army - United States Army Africa command formation at Vicenza, Italy
