Between C & E. I would go for 'C'.

I will have to change it to 'E' - just realized the 'they' in 'C'

Is it C?

C looks flawed, "it" is apperaring to modify campaign while it should have been refrring the army

I will take B.....Looks awkward though :evil:

All other choices except (E) are wrong. Army is singular.

(E) is the best choice. 'it' refers to the army. In (A),(B),(C) and (D) the pronoun they/their inappropriately refers to supplies.

E it is.

"E"...Army is singular as the non-underlines part has a "it"
