He kinda missed an opportunity by snapping at her. If he'd spoken in a quietly intense tone and thrown in a sad-looking glance into the morgue, he probably could have gotten the same effect while leaving a lasting good impression (even if all he actually said was "my hovercraft is full of eels").

Quite. But it's an interesting character moment for the Major. He's an impatient sort, even if he has more line to give than some of his men.

TRIVIA
Before becoming a webcomic, Leaving The Cradle was initially developed as a modification for Source engine, back in 2007. It was vastly different back then, much closer to the usual space opera look and feel, and the plot had nothing in common with the webcomic version, sharing only one character.
