History
Frederik Sundstrom was born December 5, 1982 in Uppsala, Sweden. Father Henrik (d. 1999) was an accountant, mother Anneke had retired from a professional tennis career to become a homemaker.

Applied for and was accepted into elite Fallskarmsjagare unit (airborne rangers) in 2005. Graduated from training in 2006. Attached to Ghosts as a military observer in September, 2008. Fought in tail end of Russian campaign and was commended by both US and Swedish commands for bravery. Rotation with Ghosts was extended as part of training exchange through the end of 2010.
Personality
Sundstrom keenly aware that he represents his country's military. He is extremely formal and proper. While he's been around the Ghosts long enough to be accepted as part of the group, he still feels somewhat separated, in large part because his tour of duty with the unit is winding down. Sundstrom speaks Swedish, English and Russian, and can curse in Finnish. He's a strict teetotaler, much to the surprise of several of the other Ghosts, and patiently and tirelessly punctures their long-held misconceptions about what life in Sweden is really like. He's something of a longer, an avid outdoorsman who prefers being alone in the woods to just about anything else. In the field, he is steady, calm and collected. This has earned him the nickname "The Glacier," which he hates.
