Ginger is a medium for the Spirit Corps, a special Spiritualist force. <p/> Each soldier heading for the front is conditioned to report to the mediums of the Spirit Corps when they die so the Corps can pass instant information about troop movements to military intelligence. <p/> Ginger and her fellow mediums contribute a great deal to the war efforts, so long as they pass the information through appropriate channels.
