"As Spartans we anticipate our involvement in any military campaign. It's who we are. It's what we were born to do. We're here to win this war and we're eager to do just that."
— Frederic-104, shortly before the Battle of Earth[6]

Lieutenant, Junior Grade Frederic-104, born Frederic "Fred" Ellsworth, is a Spartan-II supersoldier of the United Nations Space Command's Naval Special Warfare Command. A skilled close-quarters combatant and marksman,[7] Fred is a natural leader and a brilliant strategist.[5] Having been a regular member of Blue Team almost since the unit's inception, Fred typically held the call sign of "Blue-Two".[8][9] Since 2552, Fred has served as the commander of Blue Team, though he often defers leadership to close friend Master Chief Petty Officer John-117.[5]

Fred participated in numerous engagements throughout both the Insurrection and the Human-Covenant War. In 2525, Fred participated in Operation: TALON, the first operation of the Spartan-IIs. As the Covenant War began, Fred participated in numerous battles throughout the war, including the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV. Notably, Fred served as the leader of Red Team during the Fall of Reach, which ultimately saw the highest single operation death count of Spartan-IIs.[1] Fred later participated in the Battle for Earth and the Battle of Onyx, commanding several of his fellow Spartans.[5]

Following the end of the Covenant War in 2553, Fred has continued to serve as the leader of Blue Team and has since participated in numerous operations under the authority of the Office of Naval Intelligence.[5] One of the few remaining Spartan-IIs, Fred holds the highest rank among his active-duty peers.[1] As of August 2558, Fred has participated in 197 individual military operations and engagements, 139 of which were full campaigns.[5]
