    The US hasn’t, this article is either lying or chose their words poorly.

    Population growth? An army will proportionally increase in size relative to the population.

    In 1945 the US population would have been 139,928,165 people, with the US military at 16,000,000.

    Today the population is 336.58 million people, with 1.6 million in the military.
