Here's the PDF to go with it:

The soldier that was shot ended up tracking down the shooter (after an exchange) and administered first aid to the POS.

According to that article, the terrorist was using a 7.62x54R, which has basically the same power as a .308 Winchester (you know, the M60 round). The soldier must have had on a Level III vest with a plate to stop that bullet at such close range! Good thing the POS didn't go for a headshot.
