Fair enough.
The alternate route would be make the rest of the Major good

. And probably reduce the Ambulance's pop because 4 pop is actually a kinda really painful cost just to get healing - manpower, munitions and fuel for everyone else's can be recovered later in the game, but 4 pop for Ambulance will always be a noticeable drain.
Still, I'm a bit iffy on the concept of the free officers in general, but it's definitely not breaking Ostheer over its knee anymore.
