Any of Atom's outward signs of destress are those that were already there when he approached Raph to talk about a difficult subject. He has to agree with him on the mines, and nods his head. He might have even met a worse fate and ended up called back to the Imperial base where studies are conducted on otherworldly technology.
Punching big bugs can certainly count as the front line, but it's not the kind of enemy Atom is hesitant to face. If anything, he would have thought it was a shame they had to kill some fascinating creatures.
It's easy to imagine Raph literally mowing opponents down like an imposing athlete tackling the other team. Atom smiles faintly, wondering aloud, "Are the Mad Dogz like superheroes?"
A team meant to save the day sure sounded that way.
