Carl Hamilton

Carl Gustaf Gilbert Hamilton was born a Swedish noble.

He rejected his family values and became involved in leftist activity.

In the 1970s he was active in pro-Palestine movements and in a Swedish Maoist organisation called Clarté.

He entered compulsory military service with intent to infiltrate the system, in order to strengthen it.

While training to be an attack diver, he was given an offer.

The state would pay for a double education for him in the United States: he would study computers openly and special operations secretly (in Navy SEAL training) for five years.

He accepted, and so he became Sweden's newest weapon for (counter)intelligence.

After returning from United States as a lieutenant (Navy reserve), there was no place for him in military intelligence.

He was temporarily assigned to the Swedish Security Police (SÄPO), where he investigated the murder of a SÄPO agent.

During this investigation, the director of SÄPO gave Hamilton the code name Coq Rouge, the red rooster.

He received a medal of valor (För tapperhet i fält) from the Swedish Government for his actions.

His next assignment is to infiltrate a terrorist group in Germany, part of the Red Army Faction (RAF), that supposedly were planning an operation in Sweden.

After completing this mission he is transferred to Sweden's military intelligence.

His first job there is to escort a defecting Soviet Admiral from Cairo to Sweden.

Through the defector, Hamilton and his superiors found out that the Soviet Union had three secret underwater bases for special operations, set to target Sweden's highest political and military leaderships in case of a war.

After resolving this mission, a phony defector feeds Sweden false information that Hamilton was a double agent, working for Soviet Union.

This allegation is investigated, and the information is eventually found to be false.

Hamilton next leads a mission to Italy to rescue Swedish businessmen from the Mafia.

Even though Hamilton managed to finish the mission with help from his associates, many people died during the desperate fight to free the businessmen and the effect of this was a vendetta against Hamilton.

Hamilton is now tasked with preventing nuclear warheads from being smuggled out of Russia.

Hamilton and a number of Swedish airborne rangers perform a HAHO infiltration over the Russian border and resolve the mission.

However, it is later found that this was just a diversion, there was another, less modern, nuclear warhead smuggled out another way, and it made it all the way to Libya.

Hamilton is again working with the PLO military intelligence, and takes part in an operation to blow up the warhead inside Libya.

In the mean time, the Sicilian mafia waited.

When the time was right, they first try to kill Hamilton and then to go after his loved ones instead.

Hamilton had advanced to the rank of Vice Admiral.

He became the director of SÄPO, where he was called the Black Admiral by the personnel.

During his leadership of SÄPO a number of immigrants were serial-murdered.

An investigation discovered that the murderer was the Black Admiral himself.

At his trial, he did not defend himself - he even helped the prosecution.

Finally, he informed the world that what he did had to be done to clean up SÄPO.

He said he would accept the punishment the law ordered for him.

After a few weeks in prison, he escaped and fled to America under a pseudonym, Hamlon.

Hamilton lived there in America (in La Jolla to be exact) for ten years under the new identity, keeping his body in shape and getting psychological help.

But then on a spring day his old friend: the Palestinian intelligence officer Mouna al Husseini came to him with an offer he couldn't refuse.

To be a part of a big secret project of striking down the Israeli fleet.
