Default Need help for a friend.

This is short and sort'a sweet. I have a very close friend in Kansas, that i have been hunting with for the last 7 years. I recently found out that his luck has changed for kind of the worst. [X(]He is going through cancer problems and needs to sell off things that mean alot to him. He has recently been advised he is going to IRAQ in march for who knows how long. I told him that i would pass the word everytime he had an auction for some of his things that ment alot to him. WELL!! please visit his E-BAY auction to find out what he is offering now.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...130385889&rd=1

......Please tell him Viktor from Ontario told you about this. It is a once in a lifetime experience, and a great learning opportunity for all. Please pass the link on and lets get the word out. I know you all will do the best you can. I cant stress enough how much this means to me... JUST HAVE A LOOK.

THANK YOU

VIKTOR

Not sure I understand your post. He has cancer AND is being shipped to IRAQ??? Since when do they use soldiers with cancer? Something doesn't compute about that. Please explain.

Hmm scam? Im pretty sure the US military would not be sending a recovering cancer patient into a combat zone. I was in the gulf war and we sent poeple home for alot less things than cancer.

The Army could use the Help, but they are not that Hard Up! Probably Hot Items!

It sounds a bit fishy to me as well, but He never says the guy is in the military and it looks like they are from Canada not the US. Maybe it is a job thing. Still sounds odd that even a company would ship someone with cancer to Iraq.
