Mr Glory! Awesome.
I think the Pentagon should put aside 1/100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000th of their budget and send him out shooting fulltime. :)

Ha! Yeah the interest has definitely peaked just recently:
Here's an interview by Jason Wingrove at FXGuide in the most recent REDCentre episode #015: http://www.fxguide.com/redcentre
High Definition picked up the story earlier: http://definitionmagazine.com/issue_pdfs/def31/index.htm
And Videography (Aug08), DV (Sep08), and Government Video (Aug08) magazines ran variations of Lisa Horan's article linked in the OP.
Keep fingers crossed.
P.S.
If anyone is around the Vegas area on the 4th of October with an 18-50 lens, I'll be making a presentation to the International Combat Camera Association with the footage and discussion on shooting this quality overseas. I am bringing the RED and would like to borrow a local RED 18-50 lens to show it in the most cost effective setup. It's in the morning for just an hour (I fly back that afternoon). If you're around and interested please PM me.

WOW,
I knew the REDONE has launched mission in Afghanistan, because 900 had been failed during the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
Another reason, Singapore is the assemble place, is it?

I always love seeing this photo...two of my favorite things, RED cameras and M4s.

The M4 is nice. But my eye's on the Mini Gun . . . . I've got that lens too (Ang 20-120); it's big and old, but works great.
