I found this after a little bit of link chasing, and trying to get the correct story to go with the photo.

This is the caption to go with the photo :

“Photos sent to me by my friend Danny with this caption:

My wife’s uncle works in a military hospital and told me about this.
Its pretty amazing. Kevin Garrad (3rd Infantry Division) was on a
street patrol in Iraq (Tikrit I believe) and as he rounded the corner
of a building an armed (AK-47) insurgent came from the other side.

The two of them were within just a few feet of each other when they
opened fire. The insurgent was killed and Kevin was hit in the left
chest where his IPod was in his jacket pocket. It slowed the bullet
down enough that it did not completely penetrate his body armor.
Fortunately, Kevin suffered no wound.”
