Ulfie, the figure of $300/day per soldier came from a program I was listening to yesterday morning [edit: it was Monday morning the 17th]. It's here:

I don't recall who gave the figure, but it was someone on this guest list:
Joining host Larry Mantle is Hal Kempfer, a military analyst for ABC 7 News and a Reserve Marine Lt. Colonel, Ben Works, Executive Director of the Strategic Issues Research Institute, an independent think tank in Washington, D. C., and the principal radio analyst for ABC Radio, and "GI" Wilson, a retired Infantry Colonel in the USMC.
