That's very much incorrect. China, India, North Korea and the Russian Federation precede Turkey as well. South Korea and Pakistan are close (and so is Iran but not so well equipped).

I don't know if the comment was amended, but they're talking about NATO members exclusively. Turkey has a 'deployable military' of 495k according to this link:

Those numbers...
F if i know how Norway manages to spend that much on military, when there is a constant complaint about it being underfunded.
Btw, i think you need to roll the next 7-8 into one before matching the US troop numbers. Nuts.
