When the Air Force deploys with army units do they wear army uniforms?

If it's a member of the Air Force embedded directly with an Army unit, yes. Case in point - Tac-P, who call in airstrikes and such. They're usually assigned directly to Army units. In an operational environment, they are very high value targets. Wearing a distinct uniform could make them stand out particularly to an enemy, and give them the (in this case, correct) idea that they'd be a target worth taking out.
In the case of entire Air Force units attached to an Army unit, but still operating as a homogeneous, self-contained unit, they're likely to retain their Air Force uniforms.

Was the SS a platoon of the Nazi army?
No. The SS was a NAZI force separate from the GERMAN army. The main differences being that the German army wore their grey uniforms and fought according to the Geneva convention (they did not commit atrocities, they were the main force used for invasions etc.) whereas the SS was a force of Nazi fanatics, they believed in Hitler not Germany, they wore camouflage or Black uniforms.The SS was responsible for the Holocaust, and the slaughtering of the Slavs.See related question.Additional AnswerA correction the the above answer. The SS stopped wearing black uniforms around 1937. During the war, they wore Army-style uniforms with SS insignia. SS Panzer crews wore black uniforms similar to the Army's black unforms -however, these were nothing like the prewar SS 'black uniform'. It's also incorrect to say that the SS was a force of 'Nazi fanatics', as many Waffen-SS units were formed from Western and Eastern volunteers who were more anti-communist than nazi.

What color the US sharpshooter uniform?
They wear the same uniforms as the rest of their unit. This may be the ACU or MultiCam uniform for the Army, the MARPAT uniform for the Marines, the ABU for the Air Force.... special operations units have a bit more leniency in what they wear as far as uniforms go. They might wear any of the above, or even the phased out BDU, DCU, or ERDL uniforms if they saw fit to.
