What I found:
The beliefs of The Salvation Army are set out in the following eleven doctrines:
We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God, and that they only constitute the Divine rule of Christian faith and practice.
We believe that there is only one God, who is infinitely perfect, the Creator,
Preserver, and Governor of all things, and who is the only proper object of religious
worship.
We believe that there are three persons in the Godhead - the Father, the Son and the
Holy Ghost, undivided in essence and co-equal in power and glory.
We believe that in the person of Jesus Christ the Divine and human natures are united, so that He is truly and properly God and truly and properly man.
We believe that our first parents were created in a state of innocency, but by their disobedience they lost their purity and happiness, and in consequence of their fall all men have become sinners, totally depraved, and as such are justly exposed to the wrath of God.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has by His suffering and death made an atonement for the whole world so that whosoever will may be saved.
We believe that repentance towards God, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and regeneration by the Holy Spirit, are necessary to salvation.
We believe that we are justified by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and
that he that believeth hath the witness in himself.
We believe that continuance in a state of salvation depends on continued obedient faith in Christ.
We believe that it is the privilege of all believers to be wholly sanctified, and that
their whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in the immortality of the soul: in the resurrection of the body: in the
general judgment at the end of the world; in the eternal happiness of the righteous; and in the endless punishment of the wicked.

Salvation Army
Founded: 1878
Lineage: Christian > Protestantism
The Salvation Army developed in 19th century America as part of the revivalistic movements which were common at the time and in particular was an outgrowth of the Methodist "Holiness" movements. Today it can be found in 100 countries performing various charitable works.
Founded in London, England by William Booth, a former Methodist, the Salvation Army adopted a militaristic structure and rhetoric as part of its efforts to engage in social work. The group was originally called the East London Christian Mission in 1865 but the name "Salvation Army" was adopted when the militaristic structure was created.
Beliefs:
Members sign a document called "Articles of War" and the meeting places are known as "citadels." Both Booth and his son had the title "general" and people who hold offices in the organization also get military titles. Even the international structure of the group has the globe divided into "territories" and "divisions."
Although a Christian organization, neither sacraments nor a ministry is accepted. The statement of doctrines can be found in the book Orders and Regulations, written in 1878. The influence of John Wesley can be found in the ideas of universal redemption and post-conversion sanctification.
The primary goal of the Salvation Army has always been to convert people to belief in Christianity. The charitable work exists to supplement evangelism and to symbolize the love of God for sinful, fallen humanity.

I believe it is its own denomination.
I do not know what other denomination it is now like.
It use to be more spiritual, but now it seems to be more of a social group.
