Two modern armies have been known in English as the Chinese Army:
- People's Liberation Army of the People's Republic of China
- Republic of China Army (on Taiwan), which succeeded the National Revolutionary Army in 1947

Famous quotes containing the word army:
“A poor widow, by the name of Baird, has a son in the Army that for some offence has been sentenced to serve a long time without pay, or at most, with very little pay. I do not like this punishment of withholding pay—it falls so very hard upon poor families.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
