"Initially, the U.S. was politically neutral and was involved only economically; however, once the U.S. entered the war its military involvement helped force an armistice." — This is correct. The U.S. remained neutral and supplied goods/loans to the Allies until declaring war in April 1917; its later military and material contribution helped tip the balance and bring about the 1918 armistice.
