The answer of this question depends heavily on which nation's army you are referring to. As for the United States, the US declared war on Germany in 1917. The first forces to fight were the Navy and the Marines (so-called "Doughboys"). General John J. Pershing lead the American Expeditionary Forces (Army) into what little combat the US was involved in, in Europe.
