The Wehrmacht (Defence Force) was the unified armed forces of Nazi Germany, consisting of the Luftwaffe, Heer and Kriegsmarine. Much like the individual units, the Wehrmacht was formed in 1935 and was disbanded at the end of the Second World War. Establishing the defence force was arguably one of Hitler's most aggressive decisions, publicly breaking the Treaty of Versailles – claiming it was an embarrassment to all Germans.
During WW2 an estimated 18 million men served in the Wehrmacht with approximately 5.5 million of those dying in action.
