The Wehrmacht was the name of the armed forces of Germany from 1936-1945. It encompassed:
the army, which was the " Heer "
the air force, which was the "Luftwaffe "
the navy, which was the " Kriegsmarine"
The SS was not considered part of the "Wehrmacht "
In this respect you had OKW - Oberkommando der Wehrmacht (high command of armed forces) and also OKH Oberkommando der Heeres (high command of the army).

the heer . The wehrmacht is only one of 5( later 6) parts of the
heer. They had different coloured uniforms becaus there were many
troops different troops like tankpionieres , parahunter and so

also they had different uniforms one for fighting ,one for parades
