We use the definite article "the" with "army" here because it refers to a specific army—the military force that the person is joining. "Join the army" is a common fixed collocation. Using "a" or "an" would imply any army, which is not the intended meaning, and "zero article" is incorrect for a singular, countable noun in this fixed sense.
Use "the" with singular nouns when you refer to a specific, identifiable thing (the army, the sun, the door). "A" or "an" introduces a non-specific item. Zero article is common with plurals and uncountables or when speaking in general terms.
He joined the army after finishing school.
