I am putting together a Space Marine army. I have see in the past certain units with their helmets painted in different colors other than marine blue. Like Dev squads with red helmets and vets with white helments.

Is there any order of color whether Ultra Marine or plain Space Marine?

i.e...
Sergeant - Yellow Helmet
Veterans - White Helmets
Devastator - Red Helmets

For your modern Ultramarine, things are generally quite simple.

Basic guys get blue helms.
Veterans get white.
Sergeants get red.
Vet sarges get red with a white stripe.

There might be an odd change here or there (like honor guard, company champions, and the like) or specialist marines. But your basic marine is fairly simple.

It's probably also worth mentioning that not all Veterans are in the 1st company, most Command squads will be composed of Veterans.
