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.
