We also have the benefit of knowing that those were photographers before even viewing the film. If that knowledge was erased, and we were given just the information those soldiers had - grainy images of a group of people, some of them armed, not far from a firefight - I think most of us would have come to the same conclusions the gunner and pilot came to.
