'green character' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'flying a kite around the army centre' is the wordplay.
'flying' indicates anagramming the letters (letters fly around into new positions).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'centre' means to look at the middle letters.
The middle of 'army' is 'rm'.
'kite' with letters rearranged gives 'keit'.
'keit' enclosing 'rm' is 'KERMIT'.

(Other definitions for kermit that I've seen before include "Muppet frog" , "Famous TV frog" , "Croaking muppet?" .)
