"Military Woman" (女性兵士 Josei heishi?) , also called "Kergerenko" (ケルゲレン子 Kerugerenko?), is the designation given to a character from several Gundam media, most prominently the Mobile Suit Gundam: Lost War Chronicles video game and manga. Her real name is unknown.

Background

"Military Woman" first appeared, briefly, in Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team. She was a Zeon operator who reported Norris Packard's signal to launch the Kergeren. She is presumed to have been killed aboard the Kergeren when it was shot down by the GM Snipers.

Despite her brief appearance, "Military Woman" gained a bit of renown and a small fan community. Much of the reason for this is that her distinctive appearance was used for Zeon operators in a large number of Mobile Suit Gundam video games. In each she was simply referred to as "Military Woman" as she was originally intended to be a nameless soldier fullfilling a minor role.

Due to her frequent appearances, the fan community on 2chan began referring to her as "Kergerenko" (ケルゲレン子? lit. "Kergeren Girl"). As her popularity grew, she began to be increasingly featured and even appears on promotional images for games, such as Mobile Suit Gundam: Lost War Chronicles.

"Kergerenko" appears in the English versions of both Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey to Jaburo and Mobile Suit Gundam: Zeonic Front.
