When refering to an army as a body of soldiers, the term 'army' is not capitalized. But when using the term as a reference to the U. S. Army, it is a proper noun and becomes capitalized. It is the same with the abbreviated names of the other military services. The terms (i.e., navy, Navy, air force, Air Force, etc.) can be used either as common nouns to refer to organizations of particular types of war fighters or as references to the name of specific military services of the United States.

Well, I must say that I only know of five branches of the U.S. military (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard), but the President is commander-in-chief of all of them. If you include the National Guard as a branch of the military, then the President becomes commander-in-chief of them when they are called into federal service.
