Anyone have the backstory on this misdirect (or redirect...apparently depending on settings, cache, history, or something else IT-ish): www.armyauction.com ?

It looks like they are both registered to the same IP Address. So it's not really a redirect, but rather a misdirect on the armyauction.com site. I'm guessing that someone messed up and registered their name to the already used Cbid IP and now all traffic that is directed at AA.com is being sent to Cbid.

...or someone from Cbid IT department is registering domain names to the internet from their environment. I just know that the SSL certs do not match the host name and should not be used through the AA.com site.

but that is just my IT experience talking.
