Let $\mathbb{F}_2^\omega$ denote the countably infinite dimensional vector space over the two element field and $\operatorname{GL}(\omega, 2)$ its automorphism group. Moreover, let $\operatorname{Sym}(\mathbb{F}_2^\omega)$ denote the symmetric group acting on the elements of $\mathbb{F}_2^\omega$. It is shown that there are exactly four closed subgroups, $G$, such that $\operatorname{GL}(\omega, 2)\leq G\leq \operatorname{Sym}(\mathbb{F}_2^\omega)$. As $\mathbb{F}_2^\omega$ is an $\omega$-categorical (and homogeneous) structure, these groups correspond to the first order definable reducts of $\mathbb{F}_2^\omega$. These reducts are also analyzed. In the last section the closed groups containing the infinite symplectic group $\operatorname{Sp}(\omega, 2)$ are classified.
