I think if you look at that link closer you will see that the original post is pretty close to correct the US "Army" is listed as roughly 500000 Active duty personnel, what it doesn't take into account is the Navy, Air force, Marines etc. basically the original information is seemingly only looking at the "Army" branch of the military.
