Is 'ejército' always considered singular?

I used 'murieron' instead on 'murió' and was marked wrong.  So, I assume that 'ejército' is always considered singular in spanish?

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Conjugate dormir and morir in the preterite tense in Spanish (El Pretérito Indefinido)"
