I believe this is the woman they were saving...

U.S. Army soldiers from A Company 3rd Battalion 7th Infantry Regiment approach an injured woman who was caught in the crossfire with Iraqi forces over the Euphrates River when the U.S. Army siezed a bridge in Al Hindiyah, Iraq Monday. The Army's Task Force 4-64, part of the 3rd Infantry Division, took the strategic bridge in it's move north towards Baghdad. The woman, who was near a dead civilian man, was bleeding and apparently shot in the buttock.

The story identifies the Captain as a Ranger, but the caption identifies these men as regular infantry. AP-writer probably meant Ranger-qualified. Ah, well.
