Soldier In Iraq Selling US Flag On eBay

A soldier in Iraq has put a US flag up for auction on eBay. This is the flag that was flying over his base the day Iraqis voted for the first time. The proceeds of his auction is going to be used to buy Internet access for his Platoon.

The auction has already received 34 bids, with the high bid currently at $1,525. If you want to help his Platoon get Internet access, you can check out the auction. One thing that has me curious though, is if they don't have Internet access, how is it for sale on eBay? :)
