Senior Colonel Anders Magnus Olson was a Swedish Army officer. Olson served as commander of the Life Regiment Hussars from 1976 to 1980, as Chief of Staff of the Western Military District from 1984 to 1988 and as Crown Equerry and head of the Royal Stables from 1991 to 1996.

The Life Regiment Hussars is one of the world's oldest regiments still active. The regiment descends directly from units set up by King Gustav I of Sweden in 1536, when Sweden set up a draft of horses and men north and south of Stockholm. The regiment was very active in the 1600s and 1700s and helped win several key battles for Sweden on the European continent. Today, the regiment plays a central role in the Swedish Armed Forces and is the most active regiment in Swedish military international engagements.
