Another notable Swede is Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish diplomat who issued Swedish passports and sheltered thousands of Jews in Budapest https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raoul_Wallenberg . He disappeared and died in Russian captivity.
(Random lighthearted fact: because his exact date of death is disputed, Google's AI summary in the search results tells me his age is 113.)
I have the AI summary stuff disabled but the regular Google infobox tells me he died in 1947 aged 34. Kinda amusing how the AI disagrees.
von Rosen and the Biafran Air Force is quite fascinating.
