function spawnPlayer( )  
    local playerTeam = getTeamName( source ) 
    if playerTeam == ArmyTeam then 
     spawnPlayer ( source, 219.24492, 1861.24292, 13.14696 , 0) 
     outputChatBox("Don't die anymore man! There is no place for mistakes!",source,0,0,255) 
     else 
     spawnPlayer ( source, -330.77100, 1532.63647, 75.35938 , 0)

You forgot to post your code and error messages.

The error here happens because you overwrite an MTA function and the new one ends up calling itself infinitely, hence the stack overflow - call your handler function something else.

Also, wrong parameters to getTeamName (it takes a team element, not a player) and you might have made a mistake with ArmyTeam - if this isn't a variable you assigned somewhere containing that team's name, it'll screw up and always do the "else" part of your if.

function createMedicTeam () 
        ArmyTeam = createTeam ("US army", 0, 0, 255) 
end 
addEventHandler ("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, createMedicTeam) 
  
function spawnThePlayer( )  
    local  getteam = getPlayerTeam ( source ) 
    local teamname = getTeamName ( getteam ) 
    if teamname == ArmyTeam then 
     spawnPlayer ( source, 219.24492, 1861.24292, 13.14696 , 0) 
     outputChatBox("Don't die anymore man! There is no place for mistakes!",source,0,0,255) 
     setElementModel(source,285) 
     else 
     spawnPlayer ( source, -330.77100, 1532.63647, 75.35938 , 0) 
     setElementModel(source,287) 
     outputChatBox("Oh cmon! Dead again? Go! Go! Go!",source,255,0,0) 
     end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted", getRootElement(), spawnThePlayer() ) 

I tried this and it is not working too.

local pArmyTeam = createTeam( 'US Army', 0, 0, 255 ); 
  
addEventHandler( 'onPlayerWastd', root, 
    function( ) 
        local pCurrentTeam = getTeamName( getPlayerTeam( source ) ) 
        if( pCurrentTeam ) then 
            if( pCurrentTeam == getTeamName( pArmyTeam ) ) then 
                spawnPlayer( source, 219.24492, 1861.24292, 13.14696, 0 ); 
                outputChatBox( 'Do not die anymore man! There is no place for mistakes!', source, 0, 0, 255, false ); 
                setElementModel( source, 285 ); 
            else 
                spawnPlayer( source, -330.77100, 1532.63647, 75.35938, 0 ); 
                setElementModel( source, 287 ); 
                outputChatBox( 'Oh cmon! Dead again? Go! Go! Go!', source 255, 0, 0, false ); 
            end 
        else 
            -- do something here if the player has no team 
        end 
    end 
)

Please provide a fuller explanation of exactly what you expect to happen and what does. In this case I'm noticing that you're comparing a team name with an actual team. Also pay attention to indentation.
