The thing is: Frank expected this when Matt arrived. He expected all of this. And he doesn't need a goddamn apology, probably wouldn't accept it if he got one. He crouches down in front of the man but doesn't try to touch him again, even as he sees a speck of red appear on his jumpsuit.
"It's not gonna happen, okay? You're here so we're in this together now."
It's as simple as that for the Marine. He puts a hand on Matt's calf to see if he can take contact of any kind. He really doesn't want to have to carry him out of here, but he will.
"Just... take a breath, focus on my voice. Shut everything else out."
